Flipside on where I live is cheaper land development costs for the developer (a municipality, usually). They want to cheap out since it’s easier sell to the municipal voters and contractors give cheap bids in return, deciding to cheap out on the work.
For us it’s water access, and not every farmers fence needs concrete either. A 5 gallon bucket and a shovel is good enough for fence posts and other small jobs.
I’m not going to pay for the machine from my own money for some shit I do for work for a company. Next guy is just going to have to deal with it lol
fuck your cheap ass company for not doing it right.
I get not paying for it out of your own pocket though.
Those offering contracts cheap out on the contracts and specs, the people doing the thing cheap out on the work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
this is so common it’s disgusting.
I’ve had a company charge me $30k for a new roof and refused to come out to fix the leaks and blown off shingles.
I had to go out and fix my own damn roof.
bunch of fucking thieves.
I miss the days where everything wasn’t run like a corporation trying to bleed a stone.
