We ARE headed into recession. Don't buy these stocks. If anything sell them short. Better yet build a business and weather the storm

Not slowing down

The price of everything has gone up 20 to 400% except paychecks. I still make the same as I did 5 years ago, although I spend the same amount, I only get about 1/2 as much as before, so guess what, some things had to go. Where I am, finding an honest reliable, affordable plumber is like winning the lottery, so although I have done electrical for the last 40 years, I added drain cleaning to my side jobs, and wow, it is crazy busy and a money maker.

Americans r broke. work for the 1% & u will stay busy. follow the $

Yes here in Washington state is definitely slowing down

The harbor freight way is the onlyy way i can afford to get things done 😂

YOu could of put that jetter on the truck and leave the trailer at home.

In my experience as a self-employed plumber, when I serve customers that are upper middle class and above, things usually go better.

So if som1 like u as a service plumber u are always in demand. So if som1 has no hot water or a has a sewage backup whether they can afford it or not they still need u regardless???

I suspect the real money to be made on RVs is roof repair/sealing

Seeing a slowdown in Denver

All the "Building Back Better" is amazing

AZ is slowing down big time

What do You Guys charge?I'm an Rv Owner for Receration not to live in

Well, I think we can see why you like doing those jobs at the little coffee stands. You had a great view of some great legs!! 😝

No need to quit if you charge enough and do a good enough job.

Call backs i hate call backs any profit that was made on a job is often times ate. Up because of a callback ive been in the business for a long time it is very difficult at the stage your at to keep service work going like you said what if the calls don't come in what. Do you have the guys do ? We usually had some new construction work or remodeling work going on as well so to keep guys busy and not have to send them home or something we used thst stuff as fill in but again new construction you gotta wait to get paid on and you gotta pay the guys so its always a constant rob peter to pay paul thing fridays used to have me on edge id have to make sure on Thursday there was enough money to make payroll so collecting from contractors etc i feel your pain believe it i haven't been doing anything except for my own stuff in. A long time but i been there ..

You might want to Re-Consider... General RV (Largest RV chain in the US) charges $265/hr !!! for the simplest repair/inspection/drain cleaning etc..... That is better pay than home repair.

Time for ST. It is so much better. Details abd stats trends etc.

Alma Plummer and I am slow and I'm thinking getting into Angie's list

Thank you for demonstrating this, I need it to improve service. Very helpful

I am grateful for your videos

Awesome video

I like that it's battery powered, but I'll never go back to a sectional.

True, true, true. Good advise. Real wisdom. Very enjoyed.

Keep em coming.

100% my favorite plumbing channel 100%underrated

All that clicking noise on the camera gave me a headache.

I just bought the 100ft 3/4" Speedrooter XL, and so far I absolutely love this thing in comparison to the rentals you get from Home Depot! It doesn't splatter all over when the drum is turning, and it doesn't get twisted in the drum like many others do. The only negative I have is that the sewer water that's on the cable when retracting it accumulates in the drum will cause the cable to rust massively. The drum should have some holes in it for some kind of drainage. I don't want to drill any holes in it and wreck the warranty, so unfortunately I just have to deal. One other thing that might be a con is that the core of the cable is too flexible, but as a positive, it does make the turns much better, so that could looked at either way. Still, I highly recommend this for the money!

Great information

How do you fit in crawl spaces with shoulders like that?

This is all good, even for other trades.

Not a plumber, but an electrical contractor for many years. The self-employed venture is tough for a while, but it can get better. I started my contracting business at 26 yrs old, doing all commercial and industrial projects. I started my business when my wife and I were dating, prior to getting married. I told her I have to make a go at my own business, or I will have regrets in the future, I didn't want to be an unlimited licensed electrician working for another company for decades. I worked over a year solo until I felt comfortable hiring employees. By 28, I had 45 employees and 18+ month backlog. I worked in the field with the guys during the day, did sub-contract design work for engineers and architects along with office work nights and weekends. I did work 80-100 hrs a week for 12-14 years, but it paid off. The years doing that, I was building experience knowing I wanted to either have guys running the electrical business while I was running an engineering business or go full time engineering. After babysitting grown men for over 12 years and not having reliable lead guys I could depend on to run the contracting side, I slowly dissolved the contracting business and went full time engineering solo. (Best business decision I ever made). I have turned down so many engineering jobs over the past 10 years because I refuse to hire employees again. Went from sleepless nights worried about the $70k bi-weekly payroll, $100k monthly material bills, all other bills while babysitting 35 of the 45 employees to <.05% stress, <.05% headaches, <1% overhead and 800%+ profit margin. I still work at least 6 days a week, but from home office on my schedule. I could slow down but I spent years building the client base to have a steady backlog of projects. But, with all of the years working the way I have, it has provided a great life for us. Over the years, when my wife asked me if we can do something (anything), I NEVER SAID NO OR I DON'T HAVE TIME. If she asked, can we go spend the afternoon doing something, I get to a stopping point and stop working. When she asks, can we go on a vacation, my response is figure out where you want to go, about what it's going to cost and give me the dates so I can schedule jobs around that time. The only time she has sat me down to discuss me working too much was because she wanted me to slow down and take a little time for myself for health reasons. She has been so understanding with the way I have worked over the past years, but she knows it was from the determination to succeed and provide a nice life for us. 26 years of an extremely happy marriage.

I’m a licensed master plumber I hate it

This is lit, please don’t stop the content this is a whole new side of the plumbing game I’d love to see as a 24 year old plumber with dreams to build a company with my wife once I get my license

Hey boss love the video. I’m an Australian plumber and would love to build or have something like this. What lpm or gpm would you recommend would be enough to clear main lines on houses. Just starting out thanks

I rather have the gear. Be one less thing yo do

Those lower priced cameras usually have a 5 mm cable, and those are very flimsy, often hard to go more than 50 ft. For just a little more money, get the one with the 7 mm cable, yea, not up to quality of the rigid, but also 1/4 the price.

I generally use a 4000 psi 4 gpm unit, that unit is not much bigger than your small pressure washer. if it's has roots or scale in the pipe, I get out my 4000 psi 8 gpm set up, that I built for around $3000.00 it's just 2 units tied together with a tee and 2 check valves. So I have a setup with more power and about 12 thousand saved. Fixing to order a reaper nozzle, as that should take care of 95% of clogs that I encounter, then the root ranger will take care of the rest.

Very educational, helpful.

Great video

Great video. What kind of sewer camera was that?. Keep thise videos coming.

It was a c-clamp on the snail, not a pipe wrench. 7:07

How much does that weight

My favorite machines are the Spartans. The drum comes of in seconds and you can haul it up on the roof fairly easily. It still heavy, but at least you can cut the weight down. I do like the rigid sectionals too. But like you said there’s too many parts. God video man. I appreciate you!

What brand locks are they..
