If youre getting drilled in Florida, right nows the time to get it done. Everybody is migrating south for the winter. Depends on the duct size, depth, etc. Florida and Texas are full of drill operators, some arent high on meth during the workday. Youll get prices from 5-50 a foot back. The big issue I see is guys dont show up to quote, and when they do they dont show up to work. The florida market is saturated with big companies offering low rates, so if youre out and see a drill crew that looks professional working, you could likely peel them for a short job like that at a good rate.
Ive not yet done very sandy jobs or id consider a winter vacation, but I like my illinois soil and the rates the solar guys are paying There are some facebook groups for drillers and jobs to connect, just make sure to view profiles and look in the background of pics for meth pipes On Fri, Dec 23, 2022 at 11:34 AM Chuck McCown via AF <af@af.afmug.com> wrote: > The issue for me is mobilization and setup for that machine.
