#626 Fighting cost and everything else for great building with Zeke Kaplan of ZZ Contracting

09/15/24 • 111 min

The Construction Life

We talk about lateness and lack of initiative from new trades, indecision and hidden budgets from clients, and massive costs and poor green initiatives from the government. We also discuss protecting natural stone from weathering, creating value with laneway homes, building sustainably, and asking for respect from non-trades on this episode of The Construction Life Podcast.
