Re: Poolman & Us
Looks great! Do you have a website? I'm interested in seeing more of your work.

Re: Poolman & Us
Bls, Thanks. We don't have a website. We are putting together a website for the excavating side of the business now.
I am having problems with how to present the rock work on a site. If you are anywhere near Connecticut come by and see what we do.

Re: Poolman & Us
I'm in central NJ, so the drive might be a bit far. Where are you in Connecticut?
So are these boulder placement jobs the biggest part of your business? Or do you get just as many masonry or excavation jobs? |

Re: Poolman & Us
Bls,
We have phased out the masonry business. Lack of skilled masons. Dollar wise the boulder work is 70 % of our business last year and this year. Most years before that it can be 30 to 50%. We are not expecting it to be as important next year. We are in the Northwestern most corner of CT. 2 hours above NYC. You should contact Rusknet who must be fairly close to you and come up. I'll buy lunch.

Re: Poolman & Us
Very nice Nick, those boulders look like they could get pretty frustrating to work with.
