Just in the final stages of my basement.
Did most myself - which means I hired the cheapest and least qualified person I knew, and got what I paid for.
I had a tin guy come in and do the ducitng and a company come in and do the ceiling because in both cases there was not a lot of extra cost vs. doing it myself and I saved a bundle on the learning curve.
If you've never done taping and mudding my experience is that it's easy - once you get the hang of it. Took me more than few buckets of mud sanded off to get the hang of it.
I know someone who's just branched out on his own and may be worth a call to do it for you. If I can help pm me and I'll share my experiences. I learned a lot from CP all along the way, incidentally. It was a great help so keep tapping the great minds here.
Finally I may be able to line up more coaxial cable and cat 5 than you'll ever need if you go that direction. I have giant boxes of the stuff in my garage and I'm not sure if the guy who gave them to me wants them back or wants me to get rid of them. It's just bare wire though. No ends.
