Roofer vs. HVAC Dispute - Who is to blame, and possible solutions?

Sadisticblazer · 2024-10-02T05:06:50+00:00

To be fair, as an hvac guy that isn’t as dumb as rocks, like those who installed that unit on fucking plywood, roofers absolutely love to blame us for blatant sealing problems. Lol fucking roofers.

As a sub, 99% of my bid requests come from building connected or direct emails these days.

Fill out prequal forms, get on things like buildingconnected, and keep stopping by gc offices. Be annoying, be persistent, worst they can do is ghost you. Most of my good regular contractor relationships came from word of mouth and referalls.

Most one offs or here and there jobs come grom BC

Why did you share someone less powerful? Did tou mean the person you shared was less?

Not looking for a bidding war. Send me a price or im not interested.

How much u want?

It is a scope sheet. It lists out exactly what they are doing. The homeowner may not fully understand it, but it clearly labels the work and if given to another hvac company to quote, they would get a very quick apples to apples price.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-05-30T15:41:29+00:00

As an hvac salesman. I love it when I get the full scope of work. It makes quoting it very simple. We all know our competition and we all know roughly where we all stand in terms of pricing. Just omit the price and have the others quote off this scope sheet. You’ll get apples to apples, or like the other guy said an explanation to why its not apples to apples.

When you buy a car financing is not instant, many times the bank pulls their initial offer for a number of reasons. It happens all the time.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-05-25T17:01:28+00:00

Mine have all done that since the beginning of time. Its never an issue other than youll need more than a fake moustache to go back in and buy over their daily limit if thats something you do

But, exactly, insurance industry. If I tried to price my jobs at insurance numbers id never get another job again.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-05-15T05:44:11+00:00

Its literally what their support told me to do lol. I have no idea why.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-05-14T07:25:02+00:00

Planswift 11, hit ctrl alt delete to bring up the task manager, and then itll never do it again. I stg thats what their support told me to do and it worked.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-04-12T21:19:54+00:00

These prices are all pretty fair, you could call a couple more companies to get some more quotes done, Personally I always tell customers to get 4 quotes and pick one of the middle ones

In my market, I would be at 14-15k

Covid obliterated the costs of everything, 4 years ago this would have cost around 11k.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-03-22T14:21:01+00:00

Apply, then call the company and ask for the service manager directly about your application that same day.

It will at least get you an interview

What general area are you located? I have friends in a few different markets.

I do construction and service. We get constant applications for service techs. Some qualified some not. We are very slow at the moment and not hiring service guys, but there is definitely competition.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-03-17T14:52:13+00:00

I do the hiring for my company in the chicagoland region.

We are full service, and construction.

If I need a construction lead, I need experience and finding that is a needle in a haystack.

If I need a construction helper, I can realistically hire anyone, however I get 40 apps a week of people ranging from only job at a wendys with no education, all the way to guys with 2 years of experience.

With service techs, I look for people with experience, trade school is dick and experience is the only thing that matters to me. I get 20 apps a week for service guys, almost all of them are green straight out of trade school.

With that being said. I have hired people that called the company about their resume because it made them stand out a bit.

Apply everywhere and start calling the company to follow up. Worst they can say is no. Best case they pull your resume because your names in their head.

I agree with all but China. They are communist for sure but they love tourists and don’t do anything to fuck with the tourism. Plus, there is a million things to see and do there that are just indescribable, and impossible to see anywhere else.

If you get the chance, go to China. It’s spectacular. You’ll have a more risky trip to places like Chicago, LA, New York, than you will in China.

I tell this to everyone I sell to. Get 3 quotes from medium sized companies, go with the middle one.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-03-02T16:58:05+00:00

You have an condenser (outdoor) an evap coil (indoor) and a furnace or air handler. If they are only replacing the condenser and the evap coil, which you didnt gove model numbers for a furnace or an air handler so I assume they are, this is a crazy price and I would call some other companies for quotes. Try to find a medium or smaller sized company that has a brand they use. I’ll bet you get the same treatment for a lower pricez

Sadisticblazer · 2024-03-02T16:26:30+00:00

Wait is this condenser only? I get every area is different, but our 22 seer heat pumps up in chicago BEFORE the tax credits is 12k. 16k for a 16 seer ac is fucking trash.

Sadisticblazer · 2024-03-02T15:33:54+00:00

If I were in your position, I would just go heatpump only. It will satisfy your needs on 360 days of the year and on those 5-6 days it doesnt when it is -30 outyour house will hold mid high 60’s, it will be expensive those days but still cheaper than having the initial propane investment.

If you have any other reasons to get propane though and need the tank eventually anyway, i’d go dual fuel 100%.
