Lightning round, current projects.

[chris kennedy]

I'm just looking for 1 sentence responses here to get a snap-shot of the state of the industry as far as our members are concerned. Please don't stray off topic/political. I also ask the mods to close this in 48hrs so it will be a true snap-shot.

What project/projects are you currently working on?

Thanks all.

I have one new house coming up and I am working on a small office building. I also will start a remo of 4 modular units for a preschool, rewiring a very large old home and will be working on another very large addition and remo. All jobs 20,000-30,000 dollar range.

Of course, service calls, and smaller one room additions and remos. Quite busy right now.

Upgrading a service at a 5 tenant strip center, electrical renovations to a motel, mobile kitchen trailers, commercial and residential service calls. Also busy and have been since the beginning of summer.

Installing parking lot lights for some apartments, wiring an office/apartment combo for some srotage units, repairing some street lights, and finnishing installing the reversing motor starter and controls for the mixer mention in an earlier post, and keeping up with service calls. Not much

Kinda slow. Just completed a storage/training building for a fire dept., service change and picked up a job T&M tonight to go in behind a handy man rip out his crap and redo plus add some cans.

I haven't seen bare studs in a few years. Remodels, service, recess lighting, etc. I work for a small shop. All these small jobs can be exhausting.

Dead in the water. Two small trim-outs. A few service calls. It looks like a cold long winter. Boss headed to Hawaii. I'm headed to the unemployment line.

Small resi remodel/lighting
Commercial lighting maintenance

 

[ericsherman37]

Installing a new pressure transducer and associated level instrumentation at a city reservoir, and converting the old float system to a backup high/low alarm setup. And cleaning up a bunch of crappy wiring that the last guy who went out there did. And getting ready to do some upgrades at their water plant.

And miscellaneous service work fills most of the gaps.

 

[masterinbama]

Gas station remodel, service upgrade, more mobile homes than I care to discuss and golf whenever I find time.

 

[electricmanscott]

Crappy service calls, couple kitchen remodels, frequent resume circulation, general trying to keep head above water.

Resolving some lighting issues at 3 shopping centers in the area, before the weather turns.

We're one of the largest shops around and we're buried right now, thankfully. We do A LOT of ag work and everything else in between. Plus all the other little jobs/service calls that trickle in.

Our biggest job right now is a new school.

I'm actually trying to burn some $$ before the end of the year. Trying to spread the good cheer evenly w/EC's, HVAC, construction folks.

I'm up to the same sort of stuff right now. Plus a few other small and medium utility projects.
