People shouldn’t have to expect to get swindled

The truth is 90% of contractors are shit. If you want a good contract get a good friend referral.

@@kingdom3446 Yeah, and you can't spell.

@@AllenHanPR As a contractor myself, I feel 90% is a bit much but I get where you're coming from. Asking around is the best way. I do have to say, not all customers are saints either. It does go both ways. Both homeowners and contractors need to know what each other's expectations are upfront, and a lot of the BS can be avoided. Thanks.

Not just references, but do a background check and check with the BBB as well and NEVER pay ALL the money up front!

Yes ask for insurance. If he’s real he then has it

Still tho people shouldn’t have to worry about getting scammed. Guys scum. That’s the point

@@jenny8588 not really then can get insurance for one month and not pay it...then they give u the number and u think its legit.

Insurance doesn't mean ntn...I did work for years without insurance. The thing is, if u mess up someone's shit u better be able to fix or replace it

She did,,,,

For my business if it’s over 5k We require 10% upon accepting my estimate And 50% as we are halfway done Rest upon completion

People with everything upfront money

@Angry Combat Wombat I did something similar. I installed a fountain for a lady she loved it the first 2 days when I finished she tried to say that's not what she paid for and she wasn't gonna pay. I said are you sure? Her response was yea I went out and took every material I used down to the last stone and told everyone. Now a contractor in this area won't work for the lady and she has a cheap plastic fountain in the mudhole that still exists 2 years later.

It's called stupid ass rich people

I paid only 50% for bad window install-what do you do in the middle of December? They flat lied to get my contract. Nearly $10,000 and has to all go. What do you do when it is 22° outside and snow starts tomorrow? You withhold payment and they place a lein on your home. Leins are a brand new fraud tactic. If you don't like what they did and withhold that 50%, they take off and just get a lein you know nothing of. They don't pull permits but sure say they do. I called the city suspicious and nope-no permit pulled when they said they "will be". And just what the heck do we do? We're screwed sideways no matter HOW we approach things by folks who DID check out. It's getting flat miserable to own a home. Thieves are thick, tactics bold, and they employ all kids of dirty tricks now. Exhausting.

They’re trying to scam her yet AGAIN 😂

My thoughts exactly from limited info and experience I have good idea on what it needs I'd be willing to bet the 20k that a 50k demolition is NOT NECESSARY or even a reasonable suggestion it definitely far from a good complete job but also I would probably finish it leave it in perfect or at very worst perfect to the naked eye for around 5000 to about 10k worst case scenario (I know theres a "possibility" that it complete junk and not repairable but would be obvious I'd say %5 chance that is the case) regardless 50k for a demolition?! Even if included rebuild still seems high unless there's some sort of extremely complicated detail left out??

One answer -democrat run city

@@popeyeschknisfknawsum enjoy your shithole

@@MB1BUMPER what the fuck does this have to do with politics. 🤦🏽‍♂️ Trumpies love making everything about politics

@@eo1208 what I think he’s referring to is that democrat states tend to protect criminals more than the actual person being taken advantage of or scammed. I built a restaurant in Oregon for a fellow that’s an illegal alien. He ended up owing me close to 100k when I finished the job. This was 8 years ago. Laws here tend to protect the person doing the damage. But in a state like iowa I had a customer owe me about 7K. The judge made him return the money in 2 months. So yeah. Big difference.

@@reneportillo532 yea people don't ever understand it. They think people should be able to do whatever they want...especially the clowns that live in democrat states/cities

bro we paid my neighbors who are contractors to "remodel" our house. 2 months of work turned into a year and the shit never got finished. thankfully we didnt pay everything up front

Where did you get that magic number 30%? Lol 😂 I take 40% upfront, 40% before work begins, 20% is final walk through. Any customer not paying that is trying to screw me, and they are not worth dealing with deadbeats, and swindlers

And sometimes not even your mom and dad. Sometimes the only person you can trust is yourself.

@@spitty3456 hasn't happened in 12 years so

Why don't you have insurance?

@@adotintheshark4848 I work full time installing generators with a company I don't do side work full time. Yesterday was the first side job I did since last July there's no reason to if I'm not doing it every day. If I was an independent contractor and i did my own jobs every day I would absolutely be bonded or insured.

@@Madseason6x9 yes if nothing else, being insured will make you look like a professional, even if you only do side work occasionally.. Besides, you sure don't want to be sued or get scammed yourself!

A lot of Contractors refuse to do that we require a 50% Deposit

@Alfred Pennyworth thank you for the grammar lesson… this must be the highlight of your day… my advice to you; get a life

Usually we give a quote and you make payments every quarter way other project always show all paper work so the payer knows your legit I've done side work with no contract and it's side work cause I work for a major company not all people are bad and I charge a quarter of what the boss charges and its a big company like some I did for 40k 10k in materials almost 15k and my boss would charge 200k and up for the work I did in 12 hrs with 3 guys but license people charge more

First of all do not try to claim a legal background if you can not spell advice. Second no reputable contractor is going to sign some contract made up by the homeowner that is going to of course make it so he gets screwed over. Third the price of labor will sky rocket most of the time if the contractor does not get to supply materials and make a mark up( also if the home owner says oh I bought the big part it is already here simple things like nails, flashing, or in a landscaper situation probably things like the hose clamps and cpvc glue or whatever the homeowner did not think to purchase goes from reciept price plus 35 percent( usually I get around a 20-30 percent discount as a contractor, and I feel if I add 5-15% from what the customer would pay themselves for me to pick it up and get the right stuff and profit what the discount is on me being the one who shops with that supplier often is fair) suddenly that's a 300 percent increase by what is used aka 400 percent for each thing a case of 400 nails cost me 80 bucks I use 40 of them instead of 8x1.36=10.88 it's 8x4 =32 , why you ask? Because a contractor typically does not pay himself hourly he either enjoys a profit from his investment of time and resources into making money happen and the more "undercutting his profits" you do the more he has to upcharge to make your project profitable to himself and there for worth his time and effort. Fourth and foremost following advice from some idiot that spells it advise which is yes a word but most definitely not the word to be placed in this sentence seeing as to the fact a legal advisor may advise someone but he does not offer advise he offers legal advice or advisement so another words shit your stupid ass up, you moron.

Shut not shit.

Probably not. She’ll take him to small claims court and he’ll just no-show as he used a fake name. He’s a scammer and knows how to play the system.

She heart said it was okay. She had genuine hunch, and something inside her told her it was okay It's that 6th sense that couldn't go wrong.

She is an idiot too. Only give 1/3rd

50% so the contractor can cover materials and labor incase the homeowner is one of those ASSHOLES!! Who wants something and pay for nothing. It's not always the contractor. But the contractor in this video does shit work.

BBB is a joke

Who works for 10 percent down

You mean roc

Lol clearly not in any sort of business even slightly related to contractor ..%10 ?and request address of previous customers? Lol more like *10% + materials paid for *50% half way through *rest at completion *and pictures and phone numbers seems lil more realistic request

Hell yeah i get the hint I have 3 brothers so there is 4 of us znd and if this happened to my sister yeah we would have been on a hunt to get that Feria back , hint hint

A fistful of Callahan's would surely help 😉

You would have scammed her for less is 3 days?

I was looking for this comment. I used to be a contractor years ago and to do that job right would cost at least double what that estimate was. Still the guy was wrong.

Most of time you get what you pay for.

👏 yea especially the slumlords 😑

The home show not a tv show it’s at fairgrounds and they show off what they do.

Woah Woah you took a dark turn buddy lol if a illegal immigrant has your skill level and can pay materials and make a profit then "broken English" shouldn't be a problem are you the kinda guy loves free market? capitalism ? Ok don't cry when tables turn ofcourse if the "immigrant" provides quality work and the customer is satisfied But this guy is a scum bag and pretty sure he a scumbag AMERICAN CITIZEN or he wouldn't have been able to get his LICENSE in the first place before It was revoked for complaints ya buddy your not brightest american citizen in the box huh? Lol "Posing As contractors,?" You can be a "designer" a "doctor" in a country besides America just because they aren't US citizens dose not mean they're not contractors besides any US citizen like myself can pose as a contractor so ya your comment is litttteraly what feeds the stereotype of "stupid Americans" it recently became apparent how many dimwitted fellow citizens there really is in our country where we have every opportunity to at least get "half ass educated 🙄 Iguess its probably not your fault your hollow headed parents most likely passed on their defective genes to you along with the lack of ability to do critical thinking ehh ehhh Emm I right???

Most legitimate contractors are not interested in working by the hour, a reasonable down payment to cover the initial cost of material is to be expected, if the project is less than 2 weeks give the contractor a material deposit and the balance upon satisfactory completion. A contractor that needs payment at the end of each day is a huge red flag.

@@rwhclo absolutely not. Why would we get licensed, bonded, and insured then turn around and work hourly? We can work hourly for another contractor and have no overhead.

@@jacobchristian8608 And invest potentially tens of thousands in truck, trailer, equipment, tools, etc.

As a unlicensed contractor I definitely wouldn’t take that job on a hourly basis. If you want professionals your going to have to pay them no way around it.
