It really is important to us that we give the homeowners justice since the legal system does nothing. It&#8217;s also really cool to make these hacks accountable for what they do, &amp; also give them the opportunity to redeem themselves! It feels like a public service, LOL, but in the end it works out for everyone! They may learn a thing or two which is also invaluable. We are so excited that the show got picked up for a second season&#8230; And now it&#8217;ll be hour-long episodes so everyone can get more of everything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/i-love-the-catch-a-contractor-show\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=I love the &#8220;Catch a Contractor&#8221; show&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/i-love-the-catch-a-contractor-show\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Twitter\" class=\"s3-twitter hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/i-love-the-catch-a-contractor-show\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Google Plus\" class=\"s3-google-plus hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/i-love-the-catch-a-contractor-show\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to LinkedIn\" class=\"s3-linkedin hint--top\"><\/a><div class=\"pinit-btn-div\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\"  data-pin-color=\"red\" title=\"Share to Pinterest\" class=\"s3-pinterest hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script><a href=\"mailto:?Subject=I%20love%20the%20&#8220;Catch%20a%20Contractor&#8221;%20show&Body=Here%20is%20the%20link%20to%20the%20article:%20https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/i-love-the-catch-a-contractor-show\/\" title=\"Email this article\" class=\"s3-email hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They don&#8217;t just bust contractors for doing a bad job and ripping off homeowners.
