What happens when things go wrong on a job? When they do, what can we learn from it so that we don't make the same mistakes again? Stephen has a case study this week that contains multiple important lessons that all contractors should hear.
Topics we cover in this episode include:
- A case study in construction failure
- Breaking down the facts
- Make sure insurance covers anything your project touches - including existing buildings
- Have conversations with the architect before the bid
- If you're redoing work for a bond claim, be prepared to tear everything up
