Default Holmes Show

I have been watching a show called Holmes on Homes. This is a show that is easy to get addicted to.

Some of the things that he has seen and things that he has done to get problems fixed is really amazing.

One thing that has impressed me with this man's work is that if he is unsure of something himself he has no problem what so ever calling in an expert on what ever it is and truely dealing with the problem.

To me that is someone who really wants to help people rather than just quickly get the job done, get paid and move on.

I also like watching this show because I am learning a lot myself about a variety of things around the house.

I watch that show all of the time and it is great. Mike Holmes' work ethic is impeccable. He does a great job and it really ticks him off when he sees how other contractors have taken advantage of someone. He always makes things right though.

Yes your right he does make sure that the poor work of other contractors is corrected.

I wonder if those contractors who did the work prior to Mike Holmes are busted for some of the things that they have done?

I mean when Holmes comes in to fix a problem and he has had to fix some really serious ones, I wonder if the contractor who did the work in the first places gets fined or something for doing such poor work? That is something I would really like to know.

Some of the things I have seen on this show were horrible. People could have actually lost their homes due to fire because of wiring that was not up to code and worse.

People are just after money any more and they don't care about the work that they do. Well that isn't entirely true there are some contractors who really do care, but some don't. They just want the money, and move on to the next victim.
