  1. Sand bags and booms?

    I use the flat pool discharge hose. I cut the desired size, cable tie one end and fill it with sand then cable tie the other end. works great and can be done cheap. As far as the sandbags go, you can get either the plastic or burlap at any hardware store and fill them with sand. Rick
  2. Whistle while you work...or not

    I do use an AM/FM radio headphone set when I work at night. I don't use them when I do residential work. The best part about the headphones is it I can't hear my self singing. Since most of my work is at night I see a lot of strange people out there, they usually hear how horrible my singing is and turn and run. Rick
  3. A poll for lurkers...

    I have been "lurking" for quite some time now. (About 6 months) I actually did a lot of studying on this board prior to starting up. When I come in and read the posts, I find that there are much more experienced people that can answer the questions that I cannot. They usually do and I learn a little more. I will share if anyone wants to know. I started my biz in July of 2004. I live in Southern California, so most of my work is flatwork. Have done some house washes....ahhhh not a real fan of that, but do it just the same. I started completely residential and worked myself into some commercial accounts. I have some steady commercial accounts and have done fair for being in business for just a short time. My equipment set up is pretty nice. I have a 14' trailer with a Landa PGHW-5-3500, two 210 Gallon tanks. One reclaim, one fresh water, generator lights, filtration system...the works Thanks to everyone here for letting me lurk (or learn as I see it) for so long..... Oh yeah...my name is Rick
