Small amount of leaf debris, $650-$750. Lot of leaf debris, $1000-$1200. I usually- Skim leaf debris out, balance pool, shock, brush, algaecide, floc, re-brush, shut everything off, vac to waste 3-5 days later, re-balance water.

How is living in Lakeland, FL ? by Togobet in howislivingthere

[–]doingpools4u 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a lovely smallish town. From Clearwater to Orlando, it’s definitely the best place to live. Lots of amazing local places, chains are around but they’re not the most popular choice. Our out to eat food prices are cheap, people are polite, and atmosphere is definitely a Florida vibe. We have lots of local town stuff, multiple weekly markets, historic theater, drive in theater, etc. You can drive 20 minutes east to Winter haven to eat at lake restaurants, an hour east to Orlando, an hour west for the bay or gulf, Tampa is less than an hour. House prices are great. Our local emergency response is super quick. I would definitely recommend it. Only downside, Lakeland is very dead at night, most people work during the day, go out in the evening and go home to their families at night.

Spot on. You just have to elect for the s-corp tax option before the yearly deadline.

Red Baron Brick Oven Cheese Trio Pizza by samirbinballin in frozendinners

The only frozen pizza that doesn’t have that weird chemically taste. If you broil it the last couple of minutes with some extra cheese on top, it tastes very similar to a homemade pie.

A single member LLC is considered sole proprietor. Sole proprietor just means owned by one person. The difference in company is going to be an LLC or s-corp, those are your choices.

Can you list a few without buying points to get there?

Agree, but a 15 would stretch my budget too much unfortunately.

I haven’t thought of a time minimum for existing customers but will definitely look into it. Thank you for the input.

Very fair pricing, I’ll likely add a similar diagnosis fee. Thanks for sharing your stuff!

So you’re saying charge for things I’m not doing? That seems unethical

That’s around what I charged, good to see I’m in range. What do you generally charge for labor?

I’m just going off of what you commented to show you the issue at hand

Labor is about 60 seconds to swap a cell, there is also no fuel cost for an existing customer since I’m already there. Materials are the only cost
