    I just got roped into helping brother in law hang drywall in his sister's bathroom project. The guy she hired disappeared.

    A competent handyman could make a killing in this town.

    I'm sure he disappeared because competenace isn't required right now to do that.

    I hear that in every town I ever visit. It's true in most industry I come across. Everyone wants to do entire projects and hardly anyone does repairs. Part of the reason is because if something is repaired, then something else goes wrong in the future, even if it had nothing to do with the repair, the homeowner/business is likely to remember the last person to work on the place.

    I have NEVER written an estimate to repair a deck without getting a counter estimate to do a complete tear out and rebuild, and it's always at least $20k. No one wants to repair a deck, especially a two story.

    Wish I had a contact to send everyone's way for drywall.
