Reminds me of my contracting days, Red flag when customer wants to do
this and that and wants you to do this and that, Solution let them (
customer) do it themselves. Bigger red flag , customer starts telling you
all the bad luck he has had with contractors, Solution bid the job so high
when they ( customer) turn into a nit picking tight wad and try to beat
every penny out if you, you Might still make money.
Hear is my advice remember you are paying for someone's knowledge,
experience and skill. Another must is check these 3 things licenses ,
liability insurance and workman's comp. You might be getting more than you
bargain fore.
Final rule PRICE, QUALITY, TIME any two not all three. There are
Honest and quality contractors out there Good luck
