11. “I’ve mastered the exterior cope, so I am always looking for a new challenge and ways to add a little pizzazz to my work. Here I opted for the double back cut corner. It’s a win on all fronts!”
12. “You have to be careful when cutting into the structure. Always leave an inch at the bottom of the joist, this way it will retain its structure! By running this pipe through it, and spray foaming it all together the joist is stronger than when I started; stronger than the wood itself!”
13. “Luxury at its finest. I added this soap shelf complimentary to the customer because we all know what happens when you drop the soap in the shower! You gotta bend over and pick it up, and nobody is having a good time doing that! I sometimes wonder if all these extra freebies I do are gonna crush my bottom line one day, my rates are so high though so I should be good!”
14. “Customer safety is always a top priority of mine. With no hesitation, I always add a couple of extra screws to make sure the plates don’t fall off. Electrocution is a very serious issue which I do not take lightly.”
15. “My customer wanted me to replace her deck with 1×1 deck tiles and she was ecstatic when I surprised her with 4×4 deck tiles. The customers’ reaction is why I constantly strive to outdo myself and exceed the high expectations that I have created for myself! And yes I built this deck a few years ago but she wanted a fresh look!”
16. “I increased the size of this return air grille because I felt the existing grille was undersized! Sometimes you just need to return a little extra air to the furnace! Only way to keep it working properly!”
17. “I’ve mastered the 90-degree corner so I was excited about the challenge of trimming this radius. I guess I’m a master of doing the radius also! Special shout out to Home Depot for making all these cuts for me!”
19. “When looking for studs, I generally start as far away from my mounting location as possible and start sending screws home until I make a secure connection. Now when this satisfied customer is sitting back and watching re-runs of Two and a Half Men, they will remember how difficult the installation was, and will understand why my bill was so high!”
20. “Customer refused to pay my hourly rate; instead he opted to pay per fitting. I was a little hesitant at first but I think this might be the better way to charge! I made a fortune off this job”
