Contractors #1 On Gripe List

Contemplating taking out a contract on your contractor? You're not alone.

A pair of consumer watchdog groups said home-improvement contractors received the largest number of customer complaints in 1999, even more than car dealers, the two-time defending champion gripe group.

In designating contractors for the top spot for the first time, the National Association of Consumer Agency Administrators and the Consumer Federation of America said that consumers chastised pros for shoddy work, never finishing projects and fi nancial misappropriations.
