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. aren't are not can't cannot couldn't could not didn't did not doesn't does not don't do not hadn't had not hasn't has not haven't have not he'd he had; he would he'll he will; he shall he's he is; he has I'd I had; I would I'll I will; I shall I'm I am I've I have isn't is not let's let us mightn't might not mustn't must not shan't shall not she'd she had; she would she'll she will; she shall she's she is; she has shouldn't should not that's that is; that has there's there is; there has they'd they had; they would they'll they will; they shall they're they are they've they have we'd we had; we would we're we are we've we have weren't were not what'll what will; what shall what're what are what's what is; what has what've what have where's where is; where has who's who had; who would who'll who will; who shall who're who are who's who is; who has who've who have won't will not wouldn't would not you'd you had; you would you'll you will; you shall you're you are you've you have INSPECTIONLOGOS.COM "I can keep explaining it for you, but I can't understand it for you".
