Last minute flood job

[Nomad74]

I love how some days I get out of bed and think i'm only going to make $250 for the day. Then all hell brakes loose and the phone and email work orders roll in. Today was that day. Ended up doing about $1300 worth of unplanned work. Got a nice little flood job at the last minute.

Sounds safe for the kids. What could go wrong?

Apparently nothing
It’s been doing this for years
Low bid roofing
All they want is extraction and a sanitizer

It might be a little stinky

What will the day bring? I have one one scheduled, and a Doctors appointment at 7:30am. Going to get a battery of tests done for my yearly checkup. I've been fasting for 12 hours. I feel a breakfast Baconator coming to me soon. Then at 11am I take the Promaster in for a front end alignment. She's chewing up the inside of the front tires.

I guess at some point I need to collect my fans and put that carpet back together.

In class the instructor taught not to float the first day. Dry the carpet topically for one day, then float the next day so it won’t stretch like a latex balloon

Oops

A lot of times, we don't float the carpet at all. We spend more time extracting and place the fans on top. Can't do it if you have pet proof or similar pad.

It smelled horrible
Extracted
Sprayed Microban Clean Carpet
Checked it today
No smell

If you hall your own water, fill the tank before you go. The added weight affects your tires they will then align it accordingly. I worked at a car dealership and they were telling a story of a lady that kept having the alignment on her car checked. It always looked good but the tires kept wearing like it wasn't. They finally figured out that the problem was the woman, she was a biggun, so when she drove the car it affected the tires. They aligned the car with the woman in it, problem solved.

I took my water tank out. Just never used it. My tires were 1 1/2" out of whack. Glad to have them corrected.

You’re so delightfully different

Interesting.

It is also another way to sell more drying equipment.
