Our buddy Andrew is a high end contractor who charges sick prices we couldn’t even dream of affording. He gets gazillions of dollars to work on opulent palaces. That was before the collapse of the world economy.

I was chatting with Andrew the other day and he needs work. He hasn’t had a contract in awhile, yeah, because of the economic situation, but mainly because he took time off to sell his house and buy another. And renovate the new home before moving in.

I don’t really know what Andrew’s company, Anglo Inscape normally charges for jobs. He and his employees are highly skilled, meticulous craftspeople. They do specialized, quality work. But Andrew is ready to set his ego aside and charge less because he just wants to get to work again.

Now, I’m not saying he’ll be as cheap as grabbing a day laborer off the street, but it’s possible that this high end contractor might be charging mid range prices now. It can’t hurt to ask. You heard it here that you don’t have to be intimidated by him.
