This brings Ta accountability
and a desire on the part of each contractor to remain in good standing with The Builder’ s Track. Contractors who do not keep their clients happy will fi nd themselves cut from the list of leads. This keeps them sharp.
The Builder’ s Track is also often called in as a third party mediator, when there are differences of opinion between contractors and clients. Sometimes all it takes is a cooler head to keep things from going off the rails. We offer a mediation service for a small fee, and we get requests from both contractors and clients from time to time.
We are now seeing nearly as many new cottage plans as rebuilds, and that is a good sign for the communities. People are returning, new buildings are springing up all over. I know it’ s not nearly enough yet, but it’ s a good start. It will take years to fi ll in even half the gaps that stare at us now, but the lake is such a magnet, it will attract it’ s own following once again.
My own happiest years were summer vacations at Doc Paullson’ s cottage at Lundar Beach. That was a long time ago now, but the lake is the lake, and boys will be boys. Now I look forward to introducing my new grandson go those lovely waves. Life goes on, and the lake does too.
Enjoy your summer, and let us help you if we can.
