0 Everett Abrams 501 Report post Posted May 29, 2004 Jim, What is you address? I would like to send you a "Thank You Card" for keeping all that rain north of me. That was the way it was for us last year as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Paul B. 523 Report post Posted May 29, 2004 We've been in decent shape this year (lot of threats but no follow thru). It would be tough to have another year like last. Having a variety of work type also helps offset things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Mike Williamson 198 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 It hasn't rained here in probably a month...well, 3 1/2 weeks. Horrible!!! We NEED the rain...if it doesn't start raining, everything dries out, mold stops growing, and no one wants their house washed next year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 charlie 14 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Here in Wi it has rained 23 out of 31 days in May. The best thing is that I don't have to pre wet the deck. Charlie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Joe Chadwick 14 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 New England, I'm with Jim, stained 1 deck in the last 13 days, I have 14 decks ready to finish and rain is forecast for the next 3 days. And now I am getting the calls when are you going do start my deck? My answer is I can start it right away. The question these days is when am I going to be able to finish your deck? Beautiful weekend though! What about those Red Sox! Joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 CompletelyClean 14 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Same rain problems here in the Detroit region. I was able to seal 6 decks and a fence on Saturday...finally! I have a lot of decks lined up but didn't want to strip them until I got caught up with the bare decks first. I also wash houses, flatwork, etc. Problem is, with allthe rain, my phone hasn' been ringing too much for house washes. People are NOT out in their yards, noticing the filth and whatnot because it has been RAINING!!!!!! I'm thinking of getting into the other side of the woodcare business...Arc Building!

0 Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 Last year here in Maryland we had 5 MONTHS of April!!! The temps were often low and the days were filled with rain. In 30 days we had 1 day of sun! This year is a little better....so far... send the rain west where they suffer from drought. Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
