Every contractor will face difficult clients at some point. Beyond stressing you out, working with a tough client has other unwanted side effects, including:
Profit loss
Client service delays
Dinged reputation
Health-impacting stress
Business closure
Bankruptcy
Fortunately, there are several red flags that can indicate if someone might turn into a problem client during the project. When someone displays one or more red flags, consider passing on the job or charging a premium price to make the inevitable hassles worth your time.
Some of those red flags include:
Arrogance….the know it all type clients
Anxiety…horror stories of contractors past
Extreme haggling…a dollar here and a dollar there
Dishonesty….ignoring permits and standards
Incessant nagging…the never ending contract revisions
Indecisiveness…difficult to figure out what they want
We can help you make choices and resolve things to your mutual satisfaction.
