As @Collin Maas said, the whole warranty thing is a scam because they only cover materials, not the cost to demo and replace (which is where the money is)And as @Scott Mac said, it is critical to compare apples to apples.

My philosophy with contractors (in the past) has been - "hire the right people and stay out of their way".I need an honest, reliable, cost-conscious GC who can pull permits, demo and knock this "fix n flip" out in 3-4 months.  

He would be painting, demo, repairs etc.

is your demo over a certain age, in which case, they may not be into texting or even have text-capable cell phones?

In my eyes I paid him about 50% of the "proposed work" but only about 30~40% of the work has been completed (mostly demo/frame in).

No outcome yet since we're cleaning it out and will have demo done by this weekend.

Demo the SF home, build or move a M/H and make the property our personal residence for me and my family...

No one wants to live in a construction zone, especially after 2 months of demo. 

Secondary home on site needs demoed (already have one quote), and a long laundry list of other projects.

Going into to it I knew I might have to Demo it.
