I’ve just been trying to find approximate costs. It seems excessive, but it’s not what I do, so I’m certainly not truly able to decide. But when I look at what was done on my property. Think about the time involved. Thing about the work involved. I know I could have a very good living, doing nothing but that job if I owned the business. It took 2 months to get it done. They are backlogged that long. No one else does it here, not with a vibratory plow. They weren’t “good” at it... they were simply the only game in town. And it’s a big, financially capable town.
They did a decent job. Not a good job, but the basis of the work was completed. It was left a mess. But the water is on, which is what I paid for.
Quite honestly... I’m tempted to try to build a company to do it. The work does have a learning curve... but not that intensive of one. I just don’t have the time nor knowledge to do so. But I’d seriously think about hiring ‘the right guy’, if I knew who he was. There are a few things I’ve found that could be well compensated if I didn’t have a career. This is definitely one I’d move towards quickly, should that be necessary.
