    Cool - but whys the wait list so long. If renos are free money spigots why aren’t companies lining up to snatch prospective renoers in a shorter time window. I’m not in this industry but your comment makes no sense - there’s a severe shortage of renoers in the lower mainland and tens of thousands of households with book valuations that are all north of a million on paper.

      What I found when we were looking for someone to do a kitchen repair/renovation was that most of the contractors didn’t want to deal with small jobs.

      It wasn’t until they heard it was (partially) an insurance job that a few of them became interested.
