I worry about the Roto-Zip Rebel sheet-rockers ripping up my wires and JB's. Then I worry about the tile guys who have never seen an adjustable box and bury the JB 3/4" into the wall while infringing into the space allotted for your devices. And then there's always the prima-donna kitchen cabinet installers who only want to spend one day installing their cabinets so they can make a killing on their end of the install and (if you're not there while they're installing) they bury your dishwasher, microwave and under-cabinet light wiring so you have to use a circuit tracer to find them.
Lots of things to worry about but inspections are not one of them...............unless you have a job in a certain area of Northern New Jersey where the inspector is the south end of a north bound horse:roll:
i usually get along pretty well with cabinet guys, i've only had a couple difficulties, and it was in remodels...
so i explained to the homeowner that my work was damaged by their install, and one of two things had
to happen... i either had to locate, repair, or resolve the damage done by the installer, tile setter, etc.
at an additional charge, or THEY needed to contact the person and have it resolved, as they have the
money gun, and i have no legal influence whatsoever.
the one that really annoyed me was the cabinets i had installed in my garage when we bought
the house. i had set with a laser a 2" angle iron sill all around the garage to rest the cabinets on.
the company made excellent cabinets, and sent a moron to install them. the imbecile apparently
was conceived with a roto zip, and it was the only tool he knew how to make a hole with, and
couldn't use a tape measure at all. there were quad outlets in the back of every cabinet to be
cut out, and silly putty brain screwed every one of them up.... the largest jumbo grande mega
oopsie plates covered most of his failures as a human being, but i'd just spent $6k on stuff
to have it installed by a home desperate parking lot reject.
terms were that the check for the balance of the contract was to be delivered upon installation,
and i called the shop, and had the owner drive out to pick up the check. he said to just give
the check to the installer, and i said nope...
and we worked out an adjustment on the spot for the damage done. it cost him $1,000
for hiring someone who had no business doing anything to my house. either that, or he
could remove the cabinets, replace the backs of all of them, and rehang them.
