I reached out to the same company again today to basically get a re-quote, and now they are telling me "you should get a general contractor" and all that crap, and from the sounds of it it sounds like they don't want to insure me, but will get back to me tomorrow. At this point I don't mind paying whatever it costs, I just want to be able to get it, and it seems to be difficult to get. I posted here to see how the advice given to me by the insurance company could be possibly translated in me doing some work myself....but everyone just assumes I'm trying to scam ffs.
