It only took the Home Cheapo sub-sub contractor 15 months to finish my sister's deck
Part of the reason, I guess, was that he fell off her next door neighbor's roof while pounding shingles. With the $700 HD gift certificate she gave him in his pockets, which somehow got lost at the hospital. Some of the delay was the arguing over whether he'd get another $700 clams
On the plus side, it "only" took my wife 6 months to get the carpet she ordered installed
They mostly send clowns. Guys doing low bid HD work are doing it for a reason
