There is a general distrust of contractors by homeowners. Many people have been burned before by people who quote low, start construction, and charge more. A few have even been unfortunate enough to have contractors skip out right in the middle of a job. These kinds of contractors give the business a bad name. Dixie is here to change that preconceived notion. With Dixie, you don’t pay until the job is done and you are completely satisfied. We don’t hide costs, or try to get in the door to land the job and charge you more as we go. In order to run an honest business, we have to charge an honest amount. Sometimes, that’s going to cost more than other quotes, but Dixie’s work comes with a satisfaction guarantee.
You get what you pay for. When people are looking to cut costs and go for the lowest quote, they are setting themselves up for failure. Contractors will say things like: you can get a free installation, or half off an item. But the fact is, a company has to make their money somewhere in order to operate. Quality labor, service, and materials do not come for free. There is always a cost to these items. When contractors hide costs behind deals like free installation, they are just making it more difficult to compare apples to apples. There are dozens of other techniques they use, but the techniques all boil down to the same thing – hiding costs. These hidden costs can add up. Contractors can cut corners, tack on additional expenses, and even leave a job entirely. So if you are looking for the cheapest deal in town, you are probably going to get the cheapest job in town and that can cost you more than investing in quality from the start.
Dixie has a name and reputation to uphold. If our customers aren’t satisfied, well, we couldn’t keep doing business. Our name is always at stake. It’s only through our customers satisfaction that we are able to continue doing business and succeeding. What is in your best interest as a homeowner, is in our best interest as a contractor. That’s why we only use certified professionals with years of experience and we only install quality products. To receive that type of service, you can’t pinch pennies and jump for the lowest job around town.
