Key Takeaways with Josh Cantwell
- How we handle the issue of getting the delivery of materials to a job site and keeping the contractors on the site.

- The importance of making sure that every contractor has a detailed scope of work and that all orders are signed, and not changed via text message.
- The reasons why every contractor that we hire is only assigned a maximum number of 2 units at any given time.
- The value in having a runner to go get things if a contractor is missing them, to keep the contractors on the site and working, and not making runs to Home Depot or Lowe’s.
