Yammer Dan Posted November 25, 2011 Author Share #410 Posted November 25, 2011 It is hard to believe I can't find anybody to do this thing. I live WAY out in the sticks and some of then just don't want to travel to do it. Its about to get put on the back burner til Spring. But if I can find some body I would still do it. Just don't like pouring concrete in cold weather. Hasn't been cold enought to bother it so far but with my luck as soon as I pour it will freeze.

Redneck Posted December 8, 2011 Share #415 Posted December 8, 2011 Dan I'm sorry to see you are having so much trouble getting a shop built. Let me see if I can give you a few pointers. Before you have a contractor come out hide all those first gens, when they see all those antique plastic scooters they think you are mentally unstable aka crazy. They don't want to deal with crazy people. second Bath (use soap) and for god sake brush your tooth. Before you hire a contractor check with the BBB to see if they have a good reputation. Sorry I could not resist I'm going back to my corner now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yammer Dan Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share #417 Posted December 13, 2011 Had one turn me down today. Said he was just too busy. At least he told me that without dragging it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted December 13, 2011 Share #418 Posted December 13, 2011 You certainally can not fault someone that is upfront and honest. But it still sucks. Around here I don't think anyone is to busy for any job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yammer Dan Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share #419 Posted December 14, 2011 I've been doing a little at a time. Form is almost ready. Pouring it is more than I will be able to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 24, 2011 Share #422 Posted December 24, 2011 Wow, the economy must really be great up there that contractors can turn down jobs. I had 3 estimates on replacing my driveway all within a few days. Contractor is starting 2nd week in Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
