Mike Holmes Smartest Man In Canada
Last year Reader’s Digest did a poll of the most trusted Canadian’s and Mike Holmes fnished second to David Suzuki. Who those of you who don’t know Mike Holmes he has a cable TV show called Holmes on Homes where his motto is “make it right” after shoody builders have messed up people’s homes.
Here is the breakdown of the show. These poor people who’s houses are messed up call on Mike Holmes. He did takes a tour of the house like he is the house whisper and sees all that is work and then gets angry cause it’s not in he report.
My favorite part comes next. He calls on another guy to show him everything that is wrong so that he fixes it. Genius! Mike Holmes is never to be seen for the next 30 minutes of the TV show as this guy and his crew fix all that is wrong. Of course Mike Holmes swings by at the end when it’s all finished and plays hero by showing the home owners how he has fixed their house. Mike Holmes comes in walks around tells another guy to fix it then is showered with hugs and kisses at the end. What a racket.
A side note, I realize they can’t do this for legal reason but they should say who built the home or tried to repair it. I assure you it wasn’t a Portuguese or Italian person. If you want to make it right forget Mike Holmes call Joao and the boys and in three weeks your house will be as good as new with the added bonus of a grape vine you didn’t ask for planted in the backyard.

The missus & I actually liked ‘Holmes on Holmes’ over ‘Holmes Inspection’ – as she (the missus) put it – You actually get to see Mike do the work
. Speaking from experience, it’s hard to find a good contracter and when you do, you want to treat THEM right so they’ll come back when you need more done. We bumped into several of those who Mike would diss over the past 20 years before finally hitting on a guy who’s straightforward, honest, and does awesome work. Wish we had him from the start. I think Mike would approve.
