Gonna have to disagree with you on that one Ms! Actually "pride" and "good work" seems to be a in-bred trait MOST of those contractors that last and are successful possess. Its usually the "new-guy" that ruins it for those that actually take this profession serious. I know in California the Contractor's Licenses are issued cronologically and most of the suspensions and revokecations are those with the newer numbers.

To ad fuel to fire of the belief that most contractors are inept are shows on HGTV like "Holmes on Homes" that find someone that might have had a bad contractor experience and then proceed to disassemble the guys work and allude to the rumor that most contractors do the same crappy work.

Watching that program in particular I can spot many techniques he and his crew use that I would never consider knowing that the end product would be substandard.
