Hire A Professional Or Do It Your Self.
Now you are probably thinking, “What’s the big deal, if I start it and realize I’m in over my head then I’ll just hire out, they will pick up where I left off and all will be fine.” Well, only the end result of the project being fine is agreeable. Starting a project and deciding that you need to hire out half way in will often result in a greater financial, time, and labor loss. For example, suppose you decide that you want to install about 2000 feet of aluminum fence over the course of a month with intentions of a having installing a pool by July. In addition, you realize that you are budgeted in order to afford the pool you plan to install in the upcoming months. You go to the local stores, shop around and find the best materials at the most reasonable costs. At the start of the fence project, day 1, you have all the necessary materials and appropriate project outline for the fence. Your drawings call for one fence post every 6 feet dug approximately 3 feet deep with crushed stone surrounding the base. You pull out your post hole digger and immediately jump into the project. At the end of day one you have finished installing 25 fence posts and have spent a little over 8 hours on the project (assuming each fence post you installed from digging to backfilling took only 20 minutes non-stop.) At the start of day two your back is hurting, hands are blistered, and overall your body just feels spent. As a result, you take a day off and continue day two on what would have been day three. After a week passes you have successfully installed 150 posts (basically setting the ground work for 1500 feet of fence) continuing the format used on day one. Now your week long vacation is up and your regular job resumes Monday. With only three weeks left until you anticipated on installing your fence you realize at this rate you will not be able to finish the project simply working on the weekends and you can’t afford to take any more time off from work. As a result you decide to hire professionals to get the job done for you. After calling the professionals you are excited to find out that they can install 2000 feet of fence in less than two weeks. However, in order for the company to warrant there fence installation they refuse to use the materials you bought and will only install fence fabric on posts the company has installed. Now you are out a week’s vacation, hundreds of dollars in supplies, and countless hours spent attempting to do it yourself. In addition, you now have to pay the professionals for their labor and materials. Essentially, this may never actually end up happening. However, the point is to be aware that many companies will not accept labor or materials purchased from other vendors including yourself. The professionals often carry warranties with their fence installations and will not assume the liability involved with continuing work that is not originally their own. |
