“I’ll never forget that moment,” Holmes said. “I am ashamed that I did that and disappointed my client’s trust. That mistake was a real lesson for me – a lesson in humility and responsibility to my profession and those to whom we owe our skills.”
Mike Holmes said the mistake became a flashpoint in his career and served as a powerful catalyst for developing a rigorous quality control system for his work. He began paying even more attention to every detailed aspect of the repair to make sure his clients were getting the perfect solution.
