Hello to everyone,
This board is a great place to learn things. thank you!
Have been in construction for many moons. Mostly remodels and additions.
Spent the last 5 new construction painting.
But can't compete w migrant labor so we did all the fix-its they, and others created.
and, we speak english which was a big help w the clients.
then we took over all the dwall repairs in the tracts and that grew to doing
even more of the pickup, "because I can," and have all the tools for most of the trades, collected over the years...
Took the business to the largest in our small piece of the state.
Started our own biz again after a nasty divorce and now we're doing rennovations, handyman work, carpentry, painting, andmore and more pressure washing.
I always work w my wife... i like her, and she's the hardest worker I ever wanted to be around! Always nervous abt hiring helper not sure I can trust.
Only prob w wife is she thinks biz decisions are a democracy.
So far I like the pressure washing a lot!
May buy a better cold machine than the 2500 2.5g 5hp have now based on what I have learned from these threads. Want to do residential & commercial buildings.
storefronts, that is.
Need to learn more abt reclaiming water... here in CA that is a major biggie
Thanks to all.
Appreciate your help, and always glad to offer my 2c if it could help someone.
