    SHANE...... THANK YOU

    A big thanks to Shane for coming in and helping me with a pretty good sized wood project. It's been a stellar week and still am going strong. But I needed a little hudspa on this one. Suddenly my helper realized he forgot to insert his anal suppository and couldn't work, at the very last minute. So I reach a little farther into the abyss of contractors that have offered ( lets just say) their services in times of slower than usual prosperity, to no avail. Helpers think I take on some projects that are too big for my little company. I do just fine. However my work load has been uncomfortable to say the least with really weird weather lately. Whatever.... back to Shane. Made the call to Shane and he was just wrapping up his morning. He made the crappy drive to my customers house through our murderous Houston traffic, worked for an hour and helped me finish up. He knocked out around 60 remaining ft. and the gate return. You are a really good dude to help me get the wheels back on the rails. Right on!!!!

    End of wood season question

    We've been scheduling Spring 2014 for a couple months now. We take 20% down to book as well. Things get incredibly busy very quickly. So much so that we unfortunately lose some clients that simply don't have the patience to wait 6 to 8 weeks for service therefore the deposit separates the serious from the tire kickers. Been doing it that way for 17 years. I know of a few companies that take 50% down and sit on it for 4 months. We always try to encourage a credit card for payment this time of the year though so make customers feel a little more at ease. Rarely is it ever a concern or problem though. Reputation goes a long way though too.
