A few years ago, I wrote a book about the construction business of which I have been a part of, on and off, since 1974 (it is on Amazon and the other book sites for a very reasonable price). The title is “A Contractor Tells All: A Guide to Saving Money & Avoiding Trouble on Your Next Home Project”.

Mike Joy lays out an inside look at the home-construction industry. Mike knows the business firsthand — he works full time as a painting and drywall contractor in Dallas, Texas, and has worked in the construction trades, on and off, since the early 1970s.
Mike’s focus is not so much about how to do your own home repairs but how to deal with contractors who do repairs for you.
I met Mike Joy 10 years ago by way of my job in real estate when I needed a painter. Since then we have worked on several projects, all with different levels of complexity. The results from his team of painters and the talent and Mike’s professionalism have all exceeded my expectations every time. Today, Mike is so much more to our family: He is a trusted, lifelong friend who has taught every member of my family true-life lessons. Thank you
