- 132How to handle a bad contractor who won't fix poor workPaying before inspecting leaves homeowners with little leverage when contractors deliver subpar or unauthorized work. Without a clear path to recourse or refunds for shoddy repairs, people are left feeling cheated and stuck with expensive, unsightly results.
- 31Is newly finished contractor work actually acceptable?Homeowners often lack a clear baseline for what counts as standard trade practice versus poor workmanship, leaving them unsure whether to accept a flawed layout or a shortcut like partial greenboard installation. This uncertainty makes it difficult to confront contractors effectively without risking a dispute over whether the finished job meets building standards.
- 2Do I need primer for LVT on a new concrete floor?People installing luxury vinyl tile on new cement often guess if the slab is dry based on warm weather or basic humidity readings instead of using a proper moisture meter. This prevents them from knowing if a primer is actually required and which specific prep products they need to buy.
