Notes on a House

I had been recently cleaning up notes about things that have been going on around the house the last few months, It’s sort of non-stop but it’s a lot easier when you don’t have to deal with contractors. We’ve used dozens and only one turned out to be a good one. We are still waiting for a return visit from someone who got over $2000 from us to deal with a squirrel and lo and behold the squirrel is not gone. We’ve been waiting three weeks for the return visit. And this isn’t the first time we’ve been dealing with this company not following through. It’s wild as I want to support it since it is supposedly owned by women, but this is literally amounting to nothing when their employees don’t follow through. Turns out regardless of gender you can be a worthless company. I am starting to get to the point of filing complaints with the BBB. I don’t know if they do anything but I think it would at least be on the record that you should avoid this company. It’s insane how they leave you hanging over a barrel with almost no recourse over and over again. And funnily, we don’t even deal with the worst it. I see in the news and read people’s posts over and over about how awful contractors are they deal with, it’s wild, this profession. I am glad we have learned to do more and more on our own. The stress is just not worth it. Here are some of my notes I wrote out a month or so ago.

Currently: We still haven’t had any luck with the car lift people. Squirrel issue not solved. Trash seems somewhat better lately but the squirrels are literally eating and chewing the city issued cans. A bathroom door finally got installed. Waiting to see what happens. Who knows what’s next?
