What a wonderful piece. As someone who also owns an older fixer house I hate it every time I have to call a contractor, and I'm a guy. Some are great, others are probably good at their job but their personalities... Oy! I love living in and renovating an older home but it does have it's challenges. We had a company come and take out some trees that were rotted and dying. I paid the invoice as quoted and gave them a wonderful review online and when I called them again six months later for more work I never heard back, at all. There was a company working on our neighbors trees so I walked over and talked to them. Got a quote right away and they did a great job on taking out a tree and trimming another. Why don't some of these contractors at least call back? And the gruff ones, no thank you. I'm glad you're getting your roof done.
Oh I know. Don't get me started on the ones that don't even bother to return a call, even if just to say "You know what, we're booked up right now, but keep us in mind down the line." That's just terrible business.
