My $200,000 Job Was SHUT DOWN By The City!

We started this $200,000 job and we were 90% finished until the city stepped in and KILLED the entire process! Fortunately for Applewood, the things being permitted were not being built by us, but there are many times where this can happen to contractors and it will really slow them down and the progress of the project.

paver job looks phenomenal and the permits and the wait times are an absolute head ache for sure ugh lol

[@AbundantLandSolutions]

Pavers do look great!

[@AbundantLandSolutions]

Bro, serious question. How the heck does a trench cost 15k +?

[@fernyisable5]

That’s how much a decent size bathroom in ny cost and that’s just a bit of tiling , new fixtures , floors , shower etc . & 15k to dig dirt ?? Im In the wrong business . Not even roofers make that much

[@AbundantLandSolutions]

@@fernyisable5 well roofers do make that much.
30-50k for a roof easy!

[@fernyisable5]

@@AbundantLandSolutions I know , my brother has a roofing company , he’s doing well , my goal is to be a luxury GC in Manhattan before it sinks

[@fernyisable5]

@@AbundantLandSolutions not
Shingles tho , unless it’s commercial which is very uncommon

Wow this video is so well edited

[@Holmscapes]

125 per LF for a trench is ripping
Off your customer. I don’t care if you’re in California.

[@lovelylandscape]

Nice work !

[@Hable_3]

Definitely need a permit to trench it…. So you know where the existing stuff is at. And don’t hit it. Man this dude

[@Ichabod_Jericho]

That’s what I was thinking!!! How many dozens of calls a day does the city get about a private contractor who pays as few taxes as possible just destroyed another public water line or electrical line. 😂😂😂 hint hint it’s between 8-15 calls a day during the busy building seasons out here in so cal.

[@stephendeo1]

Love this video! It teaches me all the red flags. And who NOT to hire 😂

[@duduimendozadesign]

Amazing content!

[@TigranGertz]

thanks :)

[@GoldenState408]

@Tigran - im trying to do what you do, what California license(s) should i obtain? landscaping license only?

[@uneikimageTheTexasBuilder]

Send some of that work our way Teigman

[@landmarkcreations1183]

The worst city inspectors are the douche bag kids right out of college with no construction experience who wanna make a name for themselves…ya not a fan of them lol

[@tonys623]

What state do you live in and how do I contact the state attorney general?

[@l.c.6321]

i will buy the video of grant and you! i cant go to the event!

[@josieclarke460]

wait, 15-16,000 to dig 120 feet of trench?

[@mikemorales2120]

Yep . Pretty fair price😂😂😂

[@josieclarke460]

pretty sure it was 15-1600. No client who was trying to save money by self contracting would pay this much for a trench@@mikemorales2120

[@Jack-1212]

16k ? You can't believe this guy, remember his mentor is Grant ( the con man) Cardone

[@Daltonator87]

No over $100 per LF trench is nuts. $40-50 is pretty normal in CA

[@josieclarke460]

so someone would pay 6000 for a 120 foot trench? use a trenching machine, few hours maybe 4-5 hours total to trench then clean out with a trenching shovel@@Daltonator87

[@exoticoutdoors9192]

Great offer

[@nemecioluna2846]

We hate the city lol it takes us 1 month to get a permit in IL

[@nemecioluna2846]

And there’s no way to complain or Make the process faster as well

[@cristobalcarranza3504]

Did the homeowner really need to pull a permit tho t ? Or is it just more of a let me get a permit so that my house can be legit when I want to sell.

[@rizzotto139]

500 bucks sounds like grand Cardone to me

[@chrisarevalo774]

16k to dig a 120' trench for gas and electric??

[@1hemi843]

As cool as a cucumber 🥒
chill like a pickle 😂😭

[@andrewsilva6856]

Tigran - what's your percent mark up for subs?

[@josieclarke460]

he said she saved 10-15k. Probably in the 25-50% range depending on liability and risk

[@jameskim2007]

His markup is 15%.

[@galvanizedgnome]

75%

[@cannabisconnoisseursclub7554]

Not a fan of homeowner general contractors

[@watchyourtonex6989]

$125 Linear foot For a freaking like two foot deep trench that is freaking bonkers. Talk about strate raping peoples pockets

[@jonathannavarro2865]

He said $500 is super affordable that’s almost half my rent 💀🤣

[@thirdiview1230]
