Let me tell you ... I recently completed phase one of my home remodel. I decided to be my own contractor. I hired Hispanics because they were cheaper.
BUT ... the work was substandard and they often did not show up for work. I'm now entering phase two where I am actually tearing out some of the work that was performed in the first phase. At my own expense.
I'm not saying all Hispanic construction workers are bad. Some are very good. But I had no recourse and had to absorb the losses. If I did it again, I would not hire illegal workers at all.
Agree 100%!!! :-)
Well, you've got a lot of guts admitting that...Do you also shoplift and leave restaurants with 'their' silverware??? It is cheaper than buying your own...
If I did it again, I would not hire illegal workers at all.
If they start enforcing the law, maybe you'll end up in jail...
I have heard that from so many people I can't believe anyone still think they are "saving" money by hiring cheap unskilled labor. You may pay more for licensed contractors, but they are well worth it. I would not feel safe allowing an unlicensed worker to be responsible for the electricity or plumbing or gas lines....it is a safety issue. You got exactly what you paid for.....cheap crappy work.
So if your remodeling job done by illegals had gone well, you WOULD be willing to hire illegals again?
