Graco line pointers

Didn't really think you were going to Taco Bell, I just wanted to share my findings that the are the stupidist of the stupid. Good luck... Maybe the idiots won't vote in a year and we'll get a president that doesn't want to ruin this country

TruColors- Perhaps some of your fellow stripers might have some suggestions as to collecting some of your A/R. Are they contesting the quality of the work, just don't want to pay, very slow pay or ...?

Ive been patiently waiting over six months for my money. 4 garages averaging 3000 stalls each so it is significant for a small-timer like me. I've been waiting for a "punchlist". That punchlist FINALLY came last week. Quality of work is very good. The contract calls for "match existing" in several places but one excerpt says striping is to be 5 inches. They are holding me to that. The old striping was 4 inches. I made the new striping larger. Around 4 1/2.

The nature of business and the reason we need bigger profit margins, in a service business some people just won't pay and in retail some people steal, we have to price things higher to make up for that.

a lien on their property and a letter from your attorney could help insure your interests. the absolute best they would get from me is a 10% reduction in pay due to the 1/2 inch difference. after that I would tell as many contractors you can about your experience with this company.

My guess would be after you correct everything on their punch list expect more stalling and then they will probably hold back the max retention amount.

A little something we were made aware of the other day by the company (Zlien) that handles our lien filings. They sent us a ruling of a court case in Utah that they believe will be the new precedence. If you are doing work as a subcontractor you must make the property owner aware that you will be doing the subcontractor work prior to starting or your lien will be void. I would guess this would also apply to property management companies.

Tru have you tried sending a letter / email stating payment is requested in 5 business days or it will be turned over to your attorney? I did this recently on a job I did in April. Received the check in 3 days. Just saying.......can't hurt to try it.

You completed approximately 1200 thousand stall lines and other work at 4 building garages without anyone in a management position checking the work and giving feedback? Then, after you had completed all work they hold payment because of stall line widths? I just can't see this as a serious position from from someone that gets paid to manage work contracts? Will they admit that they didn't properly manage your work progress?

I think the topic was Graco pointers !!!
