Summary

In this episode, Nick & Tyler talk about what it really takes to walk away from a project — and why it's sometimes the most responsible move a builder can make. They break down a real scenario where NS Builders stepped back during pre-construction, share the signs they couldn't ignore, and open up about the fear, second-guessing, and professionalism required to make the call. This one's about clarity, boundaries, and protecting both your team and your reputation.
