Real experience: a cheap craftsman in Prague is more expensive than a solid construction company

Finding quality craftsmen is not an easy task. For larger orders, such as
flat reconstruction, this is doubly true. You will wait at least a few weeks, often months!

But by far the biggest dissatisfaction with customers does not bring long waiting times. Far worse
there are shortcomings in the quality of work and especially underestimated budgets. Lots of craftsmen
advertises dumped prices that incumbents can hardly compete with. Expectations here
however, it encounters a harsh reality.

Advance advance and budget increase

A frequent distinguishing feature of not very well-established companies is the requirement for a high deposit. Often
You must pay at least 50% contract price in advance. That's a fairly large amount. Firm
yet she had not yet begun work.
In addition, the advantageous initial offer is suddenly significantly more expensive during the work
various overpayments. With an excavated apartment, you can hardly end the contract in
half. All that remains is to take more money and pay. Success can be considered though
an unreliable craftsman will complete the order in the required quality at all, even at a significantly higher price
costs.

A seemingly more expensive company can come out cheaper

How is it possible that the initial calculations and final costs differ so much for many craftsmen?

It is a widespread unprofessionalism in negotiating contracts or trying to secure a job for
any price (literally). Thanks to coronavirus, many new ones have appeared on the market at once
tradesmen and companies. Their qualifications and experience with professional work are different.
However, what unites a large part of them is the unclear procedure for calculating the contract. Without long-term
practical experience, it is difficult to evaluate the basic two parameters, which are time
work complexity and material requirements. These differ not only according to the scope of the contract but
for example, depending on the type or age of the building.
As a result, an order with cheaper craftsmen can become more expensive in time and money.
Both are annoying and cause a number of complications.
Our company also has its experience with this, as some messed up competitive orders
we save in the end. And believe us, repairing many unprofessional interventions is ultimately more expensive than paying for an experienced company that manages its work on the first try.
