I know he went and had a truck stolen in Mexico, errrr, built a deck for Endelt. Anyone else had work done by him?

Interestingly enough.

I have worked on his house.

By "worked on my house," you mean "made my wife fat"?

I can answer that question pretty easily. I've worked on ENDelt's place, KC Rush's, Pink's, and Brando's.

I'm not taking a recommendation from Pink for fear you'll ask my wife about me.

There's a joke in here somewhere about Athan getting an addition built for only $500.

Wow, that was 3 years ago. I think she went another direction though. She didn't think I was experienced enough to side her entire house at the time. She was probably right. Heh.

I don't know. If it makes sense for me to do it, sure. But that's quite a commute. How big of a deck are we talking about?

Not talking about a cummute really...You can stay here but JimNasium has a big house that you could stay at I'm sure not that far from me...You're asking me size? :rolleyes: I just need someone with talent to look and give me ideas. I do have a few that I know I would like to do...

The best thing about having Phil work for you is that you don't have to pay him.

Set a budget, drop me a PM and I'll tell you whether I'm interested in the project. Honestly you can probably get much more for your money locally because I'll have the additional expense of driving down there.

03-13-2007, 07:07 PM

Thats a little under 3 hours each way...

I realize the 3 hour drive, that is why I invited him to stay at JimNasiums..:) So what? I have to pay for gas now???:harumph: Not for the $$$ he would make building a deck.

You expect someone that is coming out across the state to do work for you to pay for that travel at their own expense?

That isn't how business works.

Let me get this straight:

1. You read a Tommykat post.
2. You read it again.
3. You read it again.
4. You read it again.
5. You read it again.
6. You think you have it decoded.
7. You actually believe you understand what she was saying.

Mr. Phobia has never done any work for me, Mr. Simplex3. But, the head in my boat needs panelling and a new floor, so I guess I could use a head job.

Oh yeah, head is my favorite. I'm kinda expensive though. Especially if we're doing on a boat. Sometimes the rocking can cause slippage resulting in gouged wood. I don't think you want that.

Actually can't find beer & pizza guy (Imagine that. Should've jumped on it when I had the chance). Have 2 more people coming out tomorrow. I should be able to tell you something by this weekend. I'm really not wanting to pay more than beer & pizza guy as we're just trying to get a quick roof up to put the house up for sale.

Man, I'm through being the traveling remodeler. I've done it two years in a row and that's just too much. In fact, I had somebody from New Mexico ask me to come down there this spring. It would have been a great project but I declined.

I know you're kidding but your post reminded me how much I missed my family during those times out of town.

Phil does great work. Plus you can come home and keep him an extra hour drinking beer.
My gf says that during the job he provided her with the best three seconds of her life too!

Phobia

03-13-2007, 11:08 PM

Yeah, besides Brian's deck the Brando job was the coolest thing I did for a Planeteer. We converted a screened in porch into a home office for about $8k. We had fun doing it and they got a good value. Spending $8k to add $20k of equity to your house is a smart investment.

Oh - we also insulated their attic as well. How did you guys do on heating bills this winter?

Phil, maybe you can come out here and work on my neighbor's house. Fugger built a retaining wall, and I have Skillsaws and nailguns to look forward to al summer as he expands his shit from 2800 SF to 3700. :cuss:

Forget it, Bro. I already offered him beer and Mexicans to do some work out here (or was it beer and Mexican food?). Anyway, he turned me down.
