I'm working on a large renovation house that is to be featured in Parade of Homes magazine.
This house has all the extra electrical luxurys. Such as Towel warming drawer and racks, floor warmers, bread warrming drawers, steam shower, heated shower seat etc...All appliances given to them by the magazine.
You know how difficult it can be to hit the exact location of some of these connections.
So on the trim out.
The home owner is being a total jerk, cursing acting like we're dummies cause we missed a towell rack by a couple inches, and we had to cut the sheetrock.
A few other things that are not out of the norm. Esspecially when working for a home owner and not a licensed contractor.
Now their are a couple outlets not working and a porch light in an area of the house that we did not renovate. He assumes it is are fault. I got so mad I told him I wouldn't fix it until he pays me for the trim out on the rest of the house. It would most likely be easy to fix but it is the principal of the thing.
They as their own contractor have made so many mistakes them selves.
They put the huge range hood duct in last cutting right through the sheet rock and a bunch of our wires. Plus he smokes pot on the job. He even made his wifes dad mad at him. It's not just me.
They plan on selling the house just as soon as it is finished. Which to me seems illegal since they are not licensed contractors.
Would you all go and fix the stuff on the part of the house we didn't do.
Or put a leign on the title. Or at least threaten him with it.
It has got to the point if he says any thing smart to me I.m going to hit him.
