  1. Yea ok not sure if I time tonite. I have some jobs to look at and a trailer to pick up that was at the shop today. But I may get up with sometime. My big problem right now is finding good dependable help, which I guess is everybody problem. Had fellow that was going to start last mon. called him sat. eve to tell what time to meet us, says no I guess not I found another job!!!! Ain't that cool?!? At least he could give me a call!!!!! Hey thanks!!!


  2. Yea thanks for coming back to me. I looked you up to see where you were too!! Hey theres room for everyone here I think. I tend to try to bid a job by how well to do the place is keeping in mind that I don't want to lose a job. I started my business by myself and know what its like to be desperate for work and still can't stand to miss a job by being to high. I have grew a good bit in the last 4 years from working by myself to 3 truck on the road now so my thinking is going to have to change to. I can't do job for what I use to when I was by myself with no insurance and no help. Hired man can't keep up to my pace either so that effects my biding too!! So I'm trying to get some tips to try making a lil beter on some these jobs. It was just gaeting to be to often that I would bid a job then walk away and kick myself for biding to low. Also how do bid on sealing these decks? What for sealer do you use? Thanks!!!!!!


  3. I'm getting a pile of deck washes this spring and I'm just uncertian how to make a decent bid on them. I have been just taking a guess how long it takes to do it then give it a shot. I tend to come up on the short side. What range of price do you figure per square ft.? How do you figure for the railing? So much a ft. or so much a spindle?


  4. Hey ClassicPW I've been washing for about four years now, :lgbonk:most of the time by myself and been fairly busy but now I just bought out another business and have three trucks and trailers on the road with 4-5 employees working. Now I have pretty much work but sometimes I dont know about next week. You said that you did some extensive addvertising, and I was wondering what all you do as far a running ads? I'm in a couple phone books and a few news papers. I thought if you would have few tips they would sure appreciated.!!!!! Thanks!!!!:lgsideway
