Yes i do have to agree with you 90% of my week is spent yanking 100's of feet of wiring off the side of someones home and starting over. I do not like to patch already ****ty work. Better to piss the customer off and make them pay for me to do it correctly. Most of my reconnects i rewire everything from tap to tv if time is available and not to many wallfishes are needed. As for almost all contractors think that 17-20 bux is sufficient for you too cook yourself in an attic.
