We’ve all been there… a homeowner calls because the “cheap guy” left them with a leaning fence, bad materials, or a job that didn’t even make it through the first season 😬.

In this solo episode, Billy breaks down the real cost of cheap fence work — and why saving a few bucks up front usually leads to bigger problems down the road.

Here’s what you’ll hear 👇
⚙️ The hidden costs behind low bids and corner-cutting
🧱 How cheap work damages professionalism and the fencing industry
💡 What REAL value looks like and how to communicate it to customers
🧠 Why it’s time to stop racing to the bottom — and start raising the standard

Whether you’re a fence pro, a business owner, or a homeowner trying to understand pricing and quality, this episode pulls back the curtain on what “cheap” really means.
