"Everyone else can be so much cheaper and quicker and please the customer and make more profit! We did improve it, but it wasn't to the letter like you guys do it..."
This is also true in our rural market here in Nebraska. Everyone of these jobs requires a judgement call on where to stop, because to really do everything %100 to code would mean destroying the building and starting over. People who insist on bringing everything code will not get any ag work in our market. I'm not talking about new work....but remodel/additions.
Basically it comes down to two questions. Is it safe?? Is it better than it was before??
I think you did well on both counts.
