- Fail to show up and/or return phone calls, creating illusion you are much too busy to deal with such trivial things as “customers”

Called G&E Excavation of Cornish, Maine to give me an estimate on a gravel base for my shed. The guy said he’d be at my house Monday night at 6:00 p.m. He never showed up.
Called V&M Construction of Gorham, Maine. He actually came out, and mailed me an estimate of $1425. I had a question, left a voicemail on Friday, a voicemail on Tuesday, and finally left a voicemail on Wednesday telling him basically, “Hey thanks for playing, but you lose”.

UPDATE: Called Scott Dugas Excavation today and got an estimate of $2350, which as everyone knows is awfully close to $1425. What’s the deal, you got gold dust in that gravel or something?

UPDATE: Left a message with Gorham Ground Works, they never called back. I’m sensing a trend here.

UPDATE: V&M called back, guy said there was a family emergency and he forgot to change his message, so I decided to give him a 2nd chance.
