JDMCQ's Garage

Yes - only needed it once and it functioned perfectly.

No, not from HD - one of my customers is a professional basement waterproofer.
I got the setup from him. It's got a huge battery and led status panel.

It's one of those "out of sight, out of mind" things. Until you need it!

 

My mom was just asking me about them. She lives in a reservation that's on an island and they deal with a lot of power outages. Her basement floods after like 2 hours with no sump running

 

^^ yup, see your comment above. They look at one thing and that's it....

 

Yup, blows me away. That's what I'm going to do when I'm too beat up or too old to swing a hammer lol. Maybe start my own home inspection company lol.

 

You'd be good at it, unless you get lazy and complacent like they are

Nah, you'd just have all the contractors hating hearing you were headed their direction

 

I'd say a unit is necessary.

I'll take a look & let you know what one I've got.

 

They are liable for nothing too. The electricians insurance had to cover the damages. The inspector didn't pay a damn thing.

 

Lol

Thanks. I'm looking at the Wayne back up system from hd

Yup that's the sad part. Don't understand why they can't be held accountable

 

Here is mine:

 

Thanks Craig

 

garagers and Northerners....

It's a lovely 62F this AM here..

 

31* with rain here....should be snow

Huffing Co2 fumes this morning at work. Apparently someone thought it would be a good idea to do major concrete work yesterday in the warehouse with backhoes and dump trucks with the doors shut because it was 1*. Freaking whole office stinks like diesel fumes now. Idiots should of turned off the dam office HVAC since it's intake is in the warehouse

The air is fresher when I go outside for a smoke break

 

damn that sucks... you seem to work a lot... take a vacation.

 

Ill sleep when I'm dead

Haven't been here a year yet and looking to make this my job the last stop on my career. Walked into senior management position starting up a totally new division for the company. No one here has any idea what I do nor can help do it so when it's busy I'm busy. It's all good though. They take great care of me here. For the first time in many years I see the light at the end of the financial tunnel and it's all due to hard work and a great employer. This year will only get much crazier so I'll be looking to hire an assistant in the very near future.

Oh and Ive had a few vacations scheduled but had to cancel due to business. Should of been off this Friday and heading to Road Island, but at the last minute I had a client who wants to fly in from your state to go over a large job in Dallas.

 

hmm... careful now... Dallas people are all gay so he may want some butt play with you.

 

Mornin' Skip, Mike.

32F heading to 35F and 40% chance of rain; could get messier. But at least it's easier on the heating bill.

 

little too warm up there it seems...

 

I don't like my job that much

Skip's a fake name I use to throw people off who don't know me

You may call me DB, Dyob, or Boyd

 

not to be confused with FUDB...
