I work in the constuction industry and everyone wants it done yesterday and for next to nothing.Clients are often as shit as dodgy builders.The lesson is that a good crew is expensive but will give you a good job when lead correctly.Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten as my old man used to say.

He doesn't say they are all bad. He's very careful to always refer to "good contractors" and "bad contractors". There are good contractors out there, and then there are contractors who say they can do something when they really can't and then dance off into the sunset with the money.

What Mike does is arm people with knowledge of things to look for so that they can make sure they've got the good contractor who knows what he's doing. He also does his program to inform contractors of good techniq

@UpstairsMaid I don't know much of antartica either except you have to be an idiot to live there.........fucking socialists. Don't get fat, somebody else will have to pay for your healthcare! LOL This is where you want construction tips? We build more houses than shivering idiots in canada say "eh", suprised the d-bag even knows english he reminds me of the french.

[UpstairsMaid]

@HomeEnergyNow LOL. you know shit about Canada and shit about Toronto.

Some of the stuff Mike uses in his builds I would NEVER use. Such as those styrofoam shower pans...NO WAY! Hot mop is the only way to go with shower pans...THEY NEVER LEAK.....EVER!

@petrocelly Sorry about the thumbs down vote. I meant to vote your comment up.

[Ammobarer]

@petrocelly EXACTLY! I wonder how many people don't know this. Hell anybody with the budget he gets can find the problems, hire the best subs, and get the job done right!

@Yakinabottle

I so agree with you. What he does, no home inspector ever does. If Mike is going to bad mouth people, he should bad mouth his own government for allowing these type of laws to be broken and hold the building industry and home inspectors to a higher standard.

I love Mike Holmes because he got me thinking about my HVAC, plumbing, electrical, insulation etc. I know there are many contractors out there who do things differently and just as well. But, Mike deserves a lot of credit for making millions of home owners aware that for the most part they're a bunch of dumb asses who take a 500 thou mortgage without knowing shit about shit. And that's a good thing. I love his show. Fuck you if you don't.

[Yakinabottle]

Mike Holmes is a fucking dick. He puts down a $400 visual, non-destructive, non-invasive home inspection and wants to shit on home inspectors so he can go ahead with a $100,000 home renovation.

Fuck you Mike, you fucking asshole.

[pinnochio666]

you all sound like a bunch of girls

Holmes plays like he knows construction. Where he is from, is the number one place in the world for mobile or factory built homes, NOBODY in Canada knows wtf they are doing in construction. ESPECIALLY Mike d-bag holmes.
