So, regularly under 40 hrs/wk. You mention pricing, does that include time spent writing the estimates after you've looked at the job?s Wow, our boy has it definitely going on! Mad props :rockhard:

Mickey's keeping it on the DL re how many hours he puts in :/:

Keep us posted ;)

Now that's a back log

yeah that makes sense, I hadn't thought of that aspect. It's a big balancing act.

If you are charging well into the high end of things, then that solves many, many issues. Backlog pressure can definetly be tough to deal with but hopefully you're screening problem people out early by telling them on the high end how long they'll have to wait. That too can be tough to do for...

I agree with your post Mick. Getting more to the point you made earlier, how many hours per week are you spending having this fun? If it's much more than 40 hours, then it is apparently impinging on your personal life.

I forgot you had a gehl..Why keep the boxer?

"and you not the only one"🎼

Well if you're paying the bills working 24 hrs/week I'd say you've got a good thing going. :drink:

Do you do other stuff for income too?

Sounds like you are doing 3 days/week of treework. How do your guys get by on that, do they do other things?
