Default Re: nonbias plz

SpiltPit I know you addressed this towards Brent. but one question for you as i have to ask. Do you make sooo much money doing repairs that you are willing to pay a franchise fee or a user agreement fee to someone that is going to make that weekly trip to their mailbox and get their paycheck from you.. I used to be "under contract", i paid a HUGE price and 4 years of my life to get out of it. Would I ever do it again knowing what I know now? No... Independent means everything i make is mine and Uncle Sam's.. i don't share with the Insurance Industry (and yes I've read the posts that its so easy). been there one that. Now i set my prices, and if the insurance companies don't want to reimburse their customers thats between them and the customer. i get mine on site.. Can I tell I lost any financial gain from being Independent. No, if anything I can actually say i make more get paid quicker and have less stress of being sent on a call that may not pan out.. Anyways back to the original post.. There are many companies selling WR equipment.. I have used 3-4 of them, and I was trained by UB for long crack repair.. I'll tell you like Brent did.. Its not worth the time to spend on an 18 inch crack.. Even if your very good at it it would take 30-45 minutes (my average) or longer to successfully fill and cure a long crack. I can do (2) 6 inch cracks with 10 minutes drive time between them in an hour and make alot more money off the 2 jobs than the one long crack job would pay.
