I recently visited a home owner in central MS who has hired one such contractor. See how out of level this one week old room was. She simply let go of the wheel chair:

She also had what turned into a virtual laundry list of “other” issues that included:

  • No attic insulation
  • Poorly installed and improperly installed A/C system
  • Torn finished floor covering
  • Loose plumbing fixtures.
  • and more…

The flooring video you see above was the result of no footing concrete under the floor supports. The columns that held the home were sitting directly onto the ground. No Concrete. No Steel. No Support.
