Extras

[tthomass]

Do you ever include little extras in your job? Looks like a gift even though you may have budgeted for it or the cost of it doesn't really matter.

If I redo someones house and have it looking all nice I want everything to look nice. So in the end I may tell the customer I have an asphault sealing company that will be coming by to seal their driveway. Not even $200 for the service but you know how dirty the driveway can get after a job or look dull even after power washing.

This is what I do, I think it is creative and a nice thank you. Something certainly to get them talking more to other people........."the job turned out great and they even did this and that and blah blah blah".

i like that idea, what does sealing run a sqft? we usually clean the paver with a efflorescent cleaner. it usually needs it anyway because of the saw dust, but they don't know that.

off topic a little, what kind of car is that in your avatar? look like a civic.

My sister's driveway is about 70' long and I think it was $148?? So just clean the driveway off and call in for someone to seal it.........or do it yourself, its nothing to it.

Car is a '99 Civic SI. The picture was taken after a car show at Virginia Tech when I was there down by the river and train tracks. Its about to go through some changes. I'm awaiting my check from a lawsuit settlement and I'm prepping it for road racing this coming season. I'm working towards getting my license.

looks pretty sweet form the tiny little pic. i just bought a 08 VW R32. it will be a little while before i do any modding to it, its pretty sweet stock. i would love to take it to a road course and put it though the paces. maybe next summer after its not so new.
