I have noticed the lists of what is not included have expanded dramatically
and that quality is suffering.  Just goes to show - you can pay the
architects, the builders or the lawyers, but it the process takes less time
if you pay the first two:  time is money and greed costs, but the
unaccountable and dishonest will inherit the earth.

"although tight times tempt contractors to take shortcuts".


Lately several of our customers have mentioned the work quality versus
price issue, and commenting that even now they prefer to pay more,
knowing they are getting a better overall value.



I did witness one contractor and their subcontractor more rigorously
enforcing safety procedures. As smaller companies are taken over by
large ones, the larger ones are more concerned with litigation and more
inclined to enforce safety.

Not to mention trying to keep that insurance multiplier as low as
possible.
