It's a catch 22 really. If it was a larger amount even if you won you probably wouldn't get any money because this guy would just deplete any assets and reopen as Dipshit Contracting 2013 LTD. Generally speaking if you can use companies that have been around for a long time with a good reputation you might pay a little more but you get what you pay for.
These are the kind of companies I compete with a lot of time with my bids. It's a joke because they'll price a large commercial job like a highrise for less then my cost. Materials are a fixed cost and everybody pays close to the same. Labour again although can be slightly different and on tight bids can make the difference but the fluctuation isn't that huge.I constantly see people bidding at or below my cost and you know damm well they aren't making any money and if even the slightest thing goes wrong they are losing their shirt not to mention they have nothing to cover there overhead. It's funny but at the same time it's not because you know damm well there going to go bankrupt but the next day there back in business under a new name and people still sell to them, it's mind blowing.
