By hiring repair crews, you can get fooled

Nowadays, fraud of construction and repair crews has become very common. Almost every second person financially suffered from their actions. Consider the most common fraudulent schemes of workers, in order to protect themselves in the future.

Many experienced workers have familiar sellers of building materials. The scheme is very simple: in fact, one price is paid for the material, and a completely different, higher one is indicated on the check. And entrusting the purchase of consumables to the hired team, you risk overpaying.

Scheme No. 2 Fraud with the cost of work

Do not flatter yourself at the too low price for the repair work of the construction team. Often, the agreed estimate, by the end of the repair can double. It depends on the following:

• Builders intentionally overestimate the volume of work performed, if you did not monitor the repair, you are unlikely to be able to double-check and recount everything;
• Builders deliberately add unnecessary work to the estimate, sometimes even which were not done in fact.

Scheme No. 3 One-day firms and brigades

When ordering repairs at an unverified firm or hiring an unknown team, you risk losing money. When making a prepayment, the repair will not start at the appointed time, and all contacts will be unavailable. Use the services of only well-proven builders, or on the advice of relatives and friends.

Scheme No. 4 Overstatement of the true size of the apartment

Very often, unscrupulous workers can overestimate the true size of areas requiring repair. Before inviting workers, take all measurements yourself so that you are not deceived. At the same time, you can check the team for honesty.

Scheme No. 5 Imposing unnecessary work

The main principle of this scheme is to impose completely unnecessary work. Which in fact may not be produced, but their cost will be included in the final estimate. Always carefully monitor the repair process on all of its tapas. If something is not clear to you, do not be shy and ask the repair team, they are obliged to dedicate you in all aspects.

The information given applies only to the most common repair fraud schemes. But there are many others. In order to protect yourself and protect yourself from fraud, be vigilant and monitor the repair on all tapas of its implementation.
