The contractor didn’t show? Said they’d start Monday—and vanished? Ugh! Homeowners deal with these lies every day.

In this episode, I call out the most common lies contractors use to buy time, dodge accountability, or land the job. From "we're on our way" to "everything's included," I show you how to read between the lines. I also break down the red flags, give you the right questions to ask, and explain why vague timelines and fake guarantees are costing you more than just money.

Like I always say, “Structured communication kills confusion.” Don't get fooled. Learn how to protect your home, budget, and sanity.
