What’d you work on today?

That'll put some dollars back in the coffer.......

Yeah, Fed taxes are killing me this year.

Live oaks.... fat chance. They shed all year long.

Thanks

Getting there and most off the ground and in the truck, notice the hardware screen on the gas tankless water vent? I had to remove 2 Lizards from inside the blower so put that there to keep them out

Thanks

They do shed more now in the spring, but you already know they shed leaves all year long. That's the nice thing about the live oaks though..... they are green all year long.

I'm super surprised you don't have a cricket on that stack..... why wouldn't the roofing guy tell you or put one in? That's a leak waiting to happen.

We love the shade but I hate cleaning this 7/12 pitch roof, I don’t Bounce like I use to

That's a leak waiting to I did that after the roof but he’s been here since and my GC friend that did the 4 point inspec didn’t say anything either, he gave me another 10 yrs on this 2006 roof just last year

That's nuts. I'd have told the homeowner they needed a cricket. Standard practice anywhere.

Now while cleaning a gutter down spout I find a hole in a Flexzilla garden hose that was $50 for a 50’er and only about 1.5 yrs old

Here’s a pic, I bought 2 of these hoses

 

[cheveslakr]

I bought that same hose and so far so good......any idea how it was punctured?

 

[kmakar]

I have the flexzilla air hose on an auto recoiling reel. I've had it for 3 years and no issues.

I am down to 8 cars now, my son now owns a 2013 Fusion. His first car and he is 25, I told him at his age I was on car #6.

 

[kmakar]

Welp, your car insurance should go down some now......

Almost $800 a year since he is now off my policy.

 

[kmakar]

Yep, when Christina dropped off we went down $600.

What's a cricket?

What's a cricket?

It's like a mini dormered roof to divert the water away from the chimney or stack.

No idea, there’s 2 small marks on the outside of the hose but I’m not sure what caused them, other hose is fine, I’ll try to get a close pic of leak

Is bet it was cheewawaed
