The contractor disappeared with our down-payment three weeks before the expected completion date. He left us with a shop that was far from finished and a lesson we would never forget. We put all of our hard-earned savings into Brusko Barbers and failure was not an option for any of us. We rolled up our sleeves, and kicked into gear, finishing some of the fit-out and interior design ourselves. None of us had any experience with construction but when push comes to shove and everything is on the line, we did whatever it took to keep our vision alive.
