When you go with the low bidder today it's usually trouble. They'll cut every corner to make up cost and many that will never turn up until later. I remember at about 20 years ago doing building estimation most all bidders were within 10% of each other, if someone came in much lower their bid was tossed out. Today, bids can be a 50% spread and the low bid always wins, commercial or residential
