Your house is one of your biggest assets, don’t let a contractor you can’t trust do the demolitian! Over the years, I have heard all the horror stories. It all boils down to the simple fact that they hired a 2^nd rate, “pick-up truck contractor.” The definition of a “pick-up truck contractor,’ a construction worker that has no office, no plan for getting your job done and someone you have to constantly supervise.

Common knowledge is that you ‘get three estimates’ when you're looking to hire a contractor. You soon find that contractors don’t call back, will flake on the jobsite meeting, and when they do show up they don’t ever follow up or send an estimate.  There is a reason for that, they are a “2^nd Rate, pick-up truck contractor,” not a true PRO!
