[quote=Anonymous]It can depend on how much you are paying. For a bonded contractor above the average charge, especially someone in demand who you had to wait for, you can be pretty picky -- you are paying a premium for them to get it right. If you hire the lowest bidder, someone with a lot of availability, and someone who is likely not properly bonded and who hires a lot of day laborers and has few skilled craftspeople on staff, you get what you pay for. You can ask for greater precision, but they likely won't deliver, and you have to accept a certain amount of sloppiness/shortcuts.[/quote]
