True, but on the other hand, it raises the bar. If you know your work is going to be inspected, you probably do a better job. And make sure you know the building code.
A true craftsman would always do the job perfectly, but subcontractors are often unsupervised, inexperienced, and rushing from job to job.
- specialist 10y agoFor me, the building codes sets the bar. Kinda like coding standards for programming. As a result of my remodeling misadventures, I've had to learn stuff like electrical. I bought every remodeling book. Filled with conflicting advice. I barely know enough to know what questions to ask. Further, I don't want to know enough to form my own opinion. Instead, I have the building codes. Installing a sink? Do it like this. Boom, done. It's been a fantastic resource.
