Based on the diy renovations I see in my travels and online, most people not in said profession cannot be trusted to install things properly.

Are you 100% confident that if a neg pressure test was done it would conclude you installed them to spec?

Yes, I am.

I work for city hall, right beside the inspectors, so I had them look over the work!

That said, until I re-wrap the house this year, it's a patch

That’s awesome! I am jealous. I am fairly handy but I usually ruin things on my first attempt (at a new project) so when it comes to big ticket items I feel it’s cheaper (for me) to go with the pros. Who knows, maybe I’ll build a shed this summer and try my hand at windows.
