    Water Transport Pricing - HELP

    Celeste I have been lucky and managed my routes pretty good only making one trip for the clear stuff per house. Except for the million dollar homes, they are taking three loads of water each, I give one tank per house and they pay for all other trips. I have also found that contractors are...

    PWNC Meeting with Media

    I heard some talk that another modification to the current stage 2 restrictions could be possible. This would be for Carwashes, Landscapers and Powerwashers to be able to use city water again . Has anyone else heard anything on this?

    Water Transport Pricing - HELP

    Scott and FCPWLLC Thanks for your input, but as caroliprowash said, you cant hook up to the city system without getting a thousand dollar fine or ticket. Contractors will not go for a tank of water costing as much as some of the houses. Also, with a purchase order system, your prices are...

    Water Transport Pricing - HELP

    Re-use water is out. To much red tape and run off, time is still involved. I have considered bumping to a 500 gal tank (I have to check my weight limit) to help. Thought about saying OK... I'll give you one trip per job in exchange, no concrete cleaning house and garage only. That would allow me...

    Ok... This is what I am getting. Testing is for Chlorine or/and Floride, both are present in City water. If you test positive you are getting cited for a violation, It is up to you to prove yourself in court. Thats what I get. Keep in mind this will be a civil violation, therefore, it will be...

    Update. I flagged down the water police for answers. He said that if you use well water or ground water, you have to provide a contact number and address of where the water was obtained. If you are unable to provide that, you get the 1000 ticket. This guy was doing chlorine test and had vials...

    I will stick to another source of water for now...lol. I called "Ed Buchanon", Raleigh's Public Works director and told him that I would be hauling in water to clean with. I told him that I wanted to know how the "water police" would be testing the water we were using and if they could do this...

    I heard today that they approved non-pottable water for pressure washing. Alot of red tape to use and I mean alot. Going to be a last resort for me. To much of a headache. To many restrictions on using it. Nothing in the storm drain, putting signs up, no puddles left in the yard, taking a short...

    You know, whats really going to hurt is if they go through with a moratorium on development. Thats gonna hurt alot more than just lack of water. I am now hearing that some builders are folding. There are 25% more homes on the market here now, than this time last year. There are so many different...

    Unrealistic. I agree about the media, etc. I am just curious how someone can regulate personal water or say "pond water". That would be a lawsuit in itself. I have spoken with plumbers that are down to having one house to plumb. Its BAD. I know I will get complained on and even maybe a ticket...

    New Portable Vac Recovery System

    Mark, I understand the concept with PVA's, drives, garage floors, etc. Is there anyway this machine can be utilized in water recovery for exterior house cleaning, meaning some type of "gutter type drain system" to capture lets say "a percentage" of the water run off from the siding. Just a...

    Need Help with Bleach Problem

    Its seems obvious that the contractor applied to much pressure. However, I have seen bleach furr natural wood (treated). This process took in excess of two years drip by drip until a baseball size hole formed through the wood. This in no way would apply in this case, its on the contractor...
