Couple with contractor in structure
Construction projects are no fun—at least while they are happening. There are decisions to make, schedules to keep, and people to supervise, not to mention the disruption, dust and mess surrounding the project. Yet one of the most difficult parts of any construction project comes with the fact that you, the homeowner, are ultimately responsible for all decisions.
Interestingly, homeowners are not always savvy on what it takes to make a construction project run successfully. They don’t have the knowledge, and most likely, have little time with their busy work and family schedules to keep tabs on every little aspect of the project.
Unscrupulous contractors know this, and may begin to cut corners to save a few dollars here or there or speed up the work. And you as the homeowner will never know it until a problem occurs later. The contractor may even try to cover up faulty work underneath a floor or within a wall. If you’re lucky, you might notice that things don’t line up correctly, or that the materials being installed, such as the tile, aren’t exactly what you had picked out. If you’re not, the problem can haunt you for as long as you own your home.
But how would you know?
Exactly.
