Builder's References

This is a subject that comes up again and again and again. When you are spending that much money - who do you trust?

An example I am going to use is Mrs. X They were building a house. She needed concrete done. She hired a good concrete guy. He got the job done well. She complains to everyone she knows - because the concrete is rough. Her concrete guy told her and also made her sign an acknowledgment - that it was not a good day to pour concrete. (it seemed like it was going to rain. It did rain. Hard.) and yet Mrs. X feels no need to acknowledge her mistake. She blames the concrete guy. (she has also complained about everyone involved in the project.)

My suggestion is - go look at their work. If you like it, use them. Go with your instincts.
