JULY 2019
"TAKE THE TIME THAT IT TAKES  SO IT TAKES LESS TIME"


The work you are doing now determines your future and our industry's future! I recently learned that a sizable commercial irrigation system in our market, installed in the last 10 years, is being redone - with quick couplers, roller bases and hoses!
The original installation has resulted in so many headaches and service issues that the owner has decided to go back to the 1960s. Of course, it was a 'low bid' job and ......well you get the picture.

Please, for the future of your company and of our industry, bid the projects correctly, install the projects correctly, and make the decision to walk away if the scope exceeds your capabilities.

Quality work is good for everyone. According to the old saying, "A rising tide lifts all ships."

Happy Summer!
