General Contractor. No. Norwich st.
A great deal Of nonsense has BEEN
written and spoken on the subject of
building, and the consequence is that
many people have been prevented from
engaging in building operations be-
cause they have not the spare time to
give the work personal supervision,
and so fear it would not be properly
done or that it would cost them far
more than the estimated amount. Some
of our alleged funny writer's are very
fond Of getting up what they claim are
jokes upon the assumed difference be-
tween tho estimated and actual cost Of
building. and considerable distrust Of
the building trade is caused thereby, 1
but there is really no occasion for it, |
as by the use Of ordinary discretion in
the placing Of orders one is positively
assured of getting just whas he desires
at precisely the price he agreed to pay.
There are many thoroughly reputable
and responsible contractors and build
ars in Worcester and vicinity promi
nent among them being w, A. Beau |
