“Doing work for GC that doesn’t care about anything. There’s a ‘unique’ disrespect towards the hardwood flooring trade. I’ve never seen anyone go and break newly installed cabinets, or someone just putting holes in a drywall with a hammer for no reason. When it comes down to floors, it’s a whole other story. This flooring in a picture has been finished with Rubio Monocoat and this is what it looks like now. Speechless.” #woodfloorproblems
