  1. I just wanted to thank Russ from Southside for taking a thorn out of my side today. Once in a while I would try to start my washer and all it would do was click. Sometimes taking a couple minutes to start. Got fed up and took it to Russ. He had it fixed in a few minutes and the best thing is that it was free. Still under manufacturers warranty. Thanks again!!


  2. I have to say yellow page ads seem to be profitable to me. They are not near as expensive in my area as some others. I just put an ad in the new yellow book this year. They gave me three ads(2in. x 3in.) with color and a logo in different headings (pressure washing, cleaning, and contractors) I also have bold print listings under decks, sealing, maintenance, lawn and garden for a whopping 53.00 a month.

    I also have ads in the windstream book and verizon. 2in. x 3in. ads. One ad cost 18.20 a month and the other cost 29.00 a month.

    My total for phonebook advertisement for the year will be about $1200.00

    This is my only advertisement besides local newespaper which I probably won't do this year because it inflated from 210.00 a month last year to 350.00 a month this year. How do you raise the cost that much?

    I stayed pretty busy last year with this advertising!

  3. I have a 16 ft. tandem axle and wish it were longer.

    I am wanting to put two machines on it.

    I have a 425Ga. tank, high pressure hose reel, low pressure hose reel, 2- 35 Ga. chemical tanks, one hydrotek, a tool box.

    I really don't have much space left.

    I would advise to get the tandem because it pulls easier, room to upgrade, better resale value, safer, and not much more $ to buy one than a single axle. I saw the other day, a fellow selling new 7,000# 6 1/2 x 16ft. tandem's for 775.00

    I bought mine with brakes for 900.00

    How much are you really going to save buying a single axle?

  4. Hey guys,

    Here are 2 pair of good boots to try out. Both are excellent at keeping the feet dry and both are almost as comfortable as tennis shoes. I bought them for hunting and started using them for washing. You can find them at Bass Pro Shops or maybe Cabela's. One of them is called Lacrosse Alpha Burly and the other is called Muck Boot. I can clean concrete all night long and my feet don't hurt any worse than if I was wearing a pair of comfortable tennis shoes. Go try them on and walk around in the store. You'll be glad you did.

  5. The Razr is great. I've ad it for about six months and it still works good, which is saying a lot because that's about how long they last for me. I got it because it was free (I switched from nextel to cell. one) I have statewide unlimited for $50.00. Their unlimited national plan is only 100.00 Or you can add the surronding states for 5.00. No, I don't sell these phones, just like the service compared to paying 200.00 a month for nextel unlimited. i have dropped the phone ohhhhh 10 or 20 times and it has got wet at least once a week. Works great for me.

  6. Hey Travis,

    Go to Home Depot and buy some ladder levelers. They attach on the sides of your extension ladder and extend up or down and they are very sturdy. I have them on a 32ft. er The one I used to use when I was washing houses without SH You could almost set your ladder on a cliff and feel safe with them (just kidding, but one leg will extend almost 2 ft. past the other one. I believe they are around 80.00 for the pair. Are you using Ready Seal (I don't see how with all the wet weather)
