I have offered to you here, help for free in any area of your house for you. This costs you nothing and saves you $1000s. I know I have seen what people have been charging for years. I can’t believe the prices people pay to have consulting or repairs/remodeling done to their house. I can help in all areas of your house. What do you want to know? Just ask about your house and you will receive. This site is about helping each other out. I own a company which I have yet to tell anyone, what the name of that company is. I do give examples to show what I know about and how I can help you and your house. I cannot say it enough, just ask a question. I know people are coming to the site. Please let me know if you have tried to leave a question or comment and I did not see it.There are so many people out there that need help. I know if I ran an ad that said “remodel your house for free” my phone would never stop ringing! This is kinda like that, I am offering consulting or how-to guides for your house with not a single cost to you. This site is already just filled with free how-to articles and they have high viewings on other sites so I know people find them a value. Some, I have even been paid to write. Take advantage of this.
I have started this site because of the need to help people from getting ripped off by many bad contractors out there. You think of your house as your safe zone, so when someone cons or scams you on work done or repairs it has a long lasting affect on you and your house. Every person with a pick up truck or van and a hammer is not a home improvement contractor! Many are con people trying to make a easy buck at your expense. What I really hate is when I see good contractors not get a job and then see a large contractor get it, because they used price slashing tactics to squeeze out the small guy.
People are playing a dangerous game of who can give me the cheapest price for my house repairs. There is also the opposite that happens, happens mostly with the really big name companies with all the ads and promotional items to win over business for their company. people fall for all this high sales pressure and fancy truck and uniform stuff and pay way more because of it. Who do you think pays for all those hig priced ads, trucks and more, thats right you and your house!
I had a individual come to my house many years back to price out replacement windows. I knew I would be doing it myself if I could find the time to squeeze my own work in. I will not mention the name of the window company who is a large company with the fancy tv,radio and newspaper ads like crazy. Side note, who do you think really pays for those big fancy ads, you got it you! So, he comes in and sits down at my kitchen table with my wife and I. We asked when we booked the estimate about the $189.00 installed window. This is what happened next. “yes thats the ad we are running right now What size windows do you need again? I state slide by style you see on the house right now. He then say ohh, those are not covered in that promotion. I asked you that when I booked you! Well yes we have them, but they won’t work for what you want.
Well to say the least I was done right there. I knew I had invited a con man into my house. I still wanted to see what he would charge for my windows, slide by, lowE, gas filled, double pane, vinyl frame and wood look interior. Well the numbers started flying. He was adding and adding and adding. Well, he says, “we have a great deal for you as these are slide by and lowE that window in our replacement style window will cost you $1,000 dollars per window installed. I say what did you say. It is a 3' x 5' window so you know it is not a great big picture window. I then said, thanks but that to high. Well, how much did you think it will cost. I said around $450.00 which was still a high profit level for him, he did not know I knew this. I tried to stop the deal 5-6 times before he would finally leave. It did not even stop there, he just turned up the high pressure sales tactics from there.
You really most hear the rest of this, which I will provide to you in a series on you and your house improvements as this is number one in the series.
Remember Always Safety First.
