Has anyone done flood restoration and mud remediation work. The place I rent from had a major flood . A water main broke and flooded the lower level. They hired me to do the work. Not sure of pricing?The garage is about 2000 sqft water went 2 feet high and left 3 inches of mud. I'm figuring a 100 bucks an hour per person . Two of us. I also did allot of demolition work 3 rooms. Harder than pressure cleaning!!.U can charge a whole lot more than that. I work for a flood restoration company, In our area because it was 'muddy" water u can get more per hour, that should not include what u demo. and charge for the drying equipment. There is a program called xactimate that is pretty much industry standard for insurance use. If u want for giggles, give me some more specs on what u did and are going to do, and I can have an example of what that would really cost worked up for ya. Would be slightly different I am sure for ur area but would give u ball park.

The cost of the Bio Technician Course is $880.00 per personDid you read that line Scott?

A little steep but u would make that back on the first job. Those pics are right on too. If u have a week stomach go to next post now.
We got a call one time to an apartment complex, cause of a foul odor. We call the fire dept and went in. Sure enough the guy had slit his own throat with a carpet knife laying in perfectly straight position. He had been dead about a week they guessed. Talk about redefining bloating. I guess the messiest one I had to do was when a 37 yr old man just moved back in with his parents, and finally lost it. They came home after a weekend get-a-way to find him at the bottom of the stairs. When u looked up the stairs leading to the 2nd floor it looked like a true horror flic. He had slit his wrists width and length and started jogging, yes jogging, around the entire second floor. That one had to be one of the messiest ones I had to remediate. I only had to clean one scene up when the family was still there. Now THAT was weird, they did not like the fact that we came in looking like astronaunts in our suits, luckly we have this guy that gos along with us to run intereference.
Anyway, I would go for it BIG money:lgmoneyey and the physical work is easy

I do some of this with my day job, very unusual work, and u got to have a stomach for it. The pay is well worth it. I've seen some crazy stuff. It's amazing what people do.

Are u going to have individual spill pans for each shelf?
-
That should be a good money maker for ya, around here mold sampling is going for 750 for intial one and for the clearance test and then 500 for each inbetween.

If you are skimming this article, read this next line and paragraph a couple of times._____________________________________________
People shop on price because they do not know what else to base their decision upon.
It is your responsibility through marketing and sales to educate the public. People want to be sold. They don't want to be pressured, but people get high from buying goods or a service. I can tell you from the experience of being the highest guy in my marketplace that if you take the time to educate a person as to what they should be looking for, you will get the sale. Increased sales at higher profit margins means more advertising money to hinder your competition.
Oh so true!!!! Awsome post

Marriage - ( Part I )
Typical macho man married typical good-looking lady and after the
wedding, he laid down the following rules:
"I'll be home when I want, if I want and at what time I want and I
don't expect any hassle from you. I expect a great dinner to be on
the table unless I tell you that I won't be home for dinner. I'll go
hunting, fishing, boozing and card-playing when I want with my old
buddies and don't you give me a hard time about it.
Those are my rules.
Any comments?"
His new bride said, "No, that's fine with me - Just understand that
there will be *** here at seven o'clock every night, whether you're here
or not!."
(DAMN SHE'S GOOD!)
************************************
Marriage (Part II)
Husband and wife had a bitter quarrel on the day of their 40th
wedding anniversary!
The husband yells, "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that
reads:
"Here Lies My Wife - Cold As Ever "
"Yeah?" she replies. "When you die, I'm getting you a headstone that
reads:
"Here Lies My Husband - Stiff At Last"
(HE ASKED FOR IT!)
******************************
Marriage (Part III)
Husband (a doctor) and his wife are having a fight at the
breakfast table.
Husband gets up in a rage and says, "And you are no good in bed either,"
and storms out of the house.
After sometime, he realizes he was nasty and decides to make amends
and rings her up.
She comes to the phone after many rings, and the irritated husband
says, "what took you so long to answer the phone?"
She says, "I was in bed."
"In bed this early, doing what?"
"Getting a second opinion!"
(YEP, HE HAD THAT ONE COMING, TOO!)
******************************************
Marriage (Part IV)
A man has six children and is very proud of his achievement.
He is so proud of himself, that he starts calling his wife, "Mother
of six" in spite of her objections.
One night, they go to a party. The man decides that it's time to go
home and wants to find out if his wife is ready to leave as well. He
shouts at the top of his voice, "Shall we go home 'Mother of Six?'
His wife, irritated by her husband's lack of discretion, shouts right
back,
"Anytime you're ready, Father of Four."
(RIGHT ON, LADY!)
*************************************
Marriage (Part V) The Silent Treatment
A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving
each other the silent treatment.
Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife
to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight. Not
wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on
a piece of paper,
"Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it.
The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM
and he had missed his flight.
Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him,
when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.
The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."
Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

I had a similar prob. a few weeks ago, and it was a dirty check valve. Might want to check them. I bought some new ones and while I had the head off I found 2 of them that had debris, still not sure how it got in there, nI replaced them and worked great.
