Default They're house don't have any insulation in the attic?

We are in a business that relies heavily upon our command of the English language. When i see sentences such as " They're house don't have any insulation in the attic" It makes me wonder what your reports read like. My own grammar isn't what it should be but come on!

You know who you are.

A contraction is a word or phrase that's (or that has) been shortened by dropping one or more letters. In writing, an apostrophe takes the place of the missing letters.

When i see sentences such as " They're house don't have any insulation in the attic"


The 'I' should be capitalized.
