There are few things more frustrating and disappointing than a contractor who doesn’t show up to do the job. For this beautiful home posted ,such was the case. But why does this happen?
We got this project after the basement was done. There was some issue happening between the contractor and the client. I wouldn’t want to get into what happened exactly in this particular case ,but let us just understand how it happens.
Why do contractors accept the work and then disappear?
The most common reasons fall into two categories: management problems and communications problems.
Management:
- The contractor bid too low. Instead of admitting it, he/she simply doesn’t show up for the job. He/she might have needed the work at the time, but now he/she has a more lucrative job lined up and has abandoned the first project.
- The contractor no longer has the resources to do the job. Maybe he/she is short- staffed, for example, when the project is set to start.
- The contractor is overwhelmed with work and can’t take on any new projects. Some contractors manage their time and/or money poorly and are forced to jump from job to job without a clear sense of deadlines.
Communications:
- The client has waited a long time to arrange for the job to start. The contractor might have been available initially, but now he’s/she’s working on another project.
- The contractor made the bid not understanding the client’s expectations. After looking again at the project, he/she doesn’t think he/she can do the work, so he/she abandons it.
No one benefits from a job done poorly — or not at all.
3DBricks won’t waste your valuable time by bidding on a job we can’t do. We’ll listen carefully to your needs and determine whether we have the time and resources to complete your home on time.
Our commitment to strong communication and focus on the details starts before you hire us. Details are key, and we will work with you to understand exactly what you envision for your home.
Failing to understand exactly what the client needs can inflate the budget for more than 60% of what was previously agreed. If your contractor hasn’t asked you for details, he/she has made a huge mistake.
