The house I just built, I had to pay for the legalized extortion and
get scrutinized and nit picked.


I've seen a few really bad jobs around here and they where done by
city licensed contractors. The thing is if you hire one of the BIG
Name guys the inspector will showup, put his sticker on, and leave
WITHOUT looking at anything! So they can cut corners all they want.
If you do your own work they will be there for an hour or more.

My friend wired his house, inspector made him open boxes, pull out the
devices, and even go get the crimping tool he used on the ground
barrels. and this was the final inspection after all the rough in was
allready checked.

Hire the guy that made a big political contribution and you might get
really crappy work done, but it will pass inspection with no questions
asked.

Thank You,
Randy
