Worst time of the year to quote a job. Your better off waiting until next year. Get bids in the winter and start as soon as it gets warm. Don't do the patassium chloride unless it is a rehab. Everyone I know is trying to finish up b/4 the cold.

Call my buddy Garry. He's done alot of work for me. 260-433-5405. See if he'll go that far. My brother in law is in Crown Point Indiana and he was willing to do a job for him.

Wally... give my buddy Dan Farretti a call. He's a local concrete guy, and has all the equiptment. Poured the whole floor in the shop down by RPM's shop, and gave him a smokin deal. I occasionally run equiptment for him when he gets really busy and needs an extra operator.
Plus, he's a Fountain guy.
D' Farretti Construction.....708-259-5575 ask for Danny.

Well....THANK YOU JOE! Tommy is starting the job next week. He's right in the ball park of the other guy we were trying to get to do the work for us. He sounds like a good guy. I owe ya a beer or three!
dukenrock.....i didn't call your buddy, figured it was a bit far for them to travel to the north side of Chicago. Thanks though
10x...i called Dan....spoke to him....he never followed up for an estimate...oh well
