    Contract climber rate?

    Might I add in my example above. I was helping a friend out and he asked if I could move some plywood boards that were on an aspestos roof. We were removing a large pine tree that had compromised 9 garages at an apartment. I tried to move the boards, the walls had shifted, unknown to us the...

    Contract climber rate?

    That is key I think Sean. In the above scenario you are describing what is referred to in the Uk as. Bona Fide Subcontractor. Uses own tools and equipment, own staff and is responsible for the safe completion of the job. Hence they require insurance coverage for their staff and the public and...

    How'd it go today?

    Just changing a headlight bulb can be a major project now. I plan on buying an old vehicle from down south if I need another one. Shipping is quite cheap. Newer vehicles are just getting more and more stupid. One of those headlight buffing kits might do the trick.

    How'd it go today?

    Ain't it the truth. Last summer I replaced the headlight assemblies on my 2000 Toyota Tundra as they were sun faded and foggy looking. Took about 20 minutes each, and I went slow and easy so as to be sure not to break any 20+ year old plastic fittings. They looked so good that I decided I...

    How'd it go today?

    I'm declaring February best an engineer month. Sometimes they just make things harder February they need to be. A headlight bulb in my Golf should be a 30 second job. It isn't because they put a fuse box in the way. The fuse box could be just a half in smaller and it wouldn't be a problem. Just...

    Contract climber rate?

    Here, legally, the two business must operate separately, never together. The Sub-contractor climber can't work with the General Contractor's ground worker. Does that rule get broken? All the time!

    Contract climber rate?

    In the UK, it’s the original contractor’s responsibility/insurance. What if there’s a dispute over whether the climber feels the groundsman (employed by the main contractor) is responsible? If the freelance climber puts a hole in the roof then all the main contractor can do is not hire that guy...

    Mentoring New Climbers

    I try to focus on what I want instead of what I don't want. I try to get new climbers to do this. I don't want to fall. Vs. I want to safely and confidently climb and descend from the tree. Also, focus/ walk them through a process of mentally defining the goal, exploring options...

    Contract climber rate?

    I think it's different being a subcontractor than an employeeas to responsibility for damage. This gets messy when a subcontractor is working with tools and employees of the general (main) contractor. Subs can't use/ work with general contractors', tools, employees, nor supervision/...

    Contract climber rate?

    Why would you need liability insurance? If you damage something surely the main contractor is responsible.
