Me and my family did it quite a few years...
We all dumped it... I think I finally called it quit in 2012.
Money could be good at times...
Have a really full cleaning schedule and need to get to a water loss yet... Ugh!
Insurance company squabbles suck.
Fighting with desk adjusters who haven't been on water losses but are experts... Suck..
Every Holiday people are at home and breaking their house....so you are out working in a lot of crappy situations (and then some insurance companies want to argue not paying after hour rates).... PS... Sucks!
Having homeowners get the insurance check even though you have direct pay authorization or your name is to be included on the check... And they take the family on exotic vacation on the money and not pay you... Sucks!
Some States won't let you put a lein on the building that will really stick (MN) and you could wait for years to get your money.... Sucks!
Finally focusing on dominating carpet cleaning.... It replaced the money for the most part... And life didn't SUCK as bad.
Telling people you don't do water restoration on a Sunday afternoon on the lake with the family.... Priceless! (especially to some client who made your life hell on their last water damage!)
(how was that Marty?
