All of the better photos on there are of my work so pic away. (That's a pun if you are actually thinking I was serious). Good luck!.. gene ec-Indy Gene Dean Director of Training and Technical Support Elite Crete of Indiana Tel: (317) 888-4440 Fax: (866) 296-0008 Email: gene.dean@elitecrete.com

Posts: 2 02/24/12 09:35 AM	Thanks Gene!! Also, do you have any suggestions on estimating templates? I got a lead on a potenital 3 resturant job yesterday at lunch :) The owner wants me to give himi an estimate... It would be for a 200sq ft repair and a 1500sq ft re-seal...(will go back to get proper measurements) Since I am new, I have no idea how to put an estimate together... I have the estimating spreadsheet... but was wondering if there is some sort of a form to plug it into. Thanks! Alicia I will only be promoting Elite Crete Systems and appreciate your humor :) lol

Keep your distributors phone number on speed dial and go through the archives on here and study every aspect of this job your looking at before starting it. My very first job cost me 2k out of my pocket because of a stupid mistake. These guys on here will be your best friend when you get in trouble and you will get in trouble at some point and need some advice. Trust me been their done that.

It will help you with your product cost for project bid purposes. Remember to figure in shipping as well. There are quite a few talented installers with vast knowledge on this forum. Feel free to ask questions, but ALWAYS contact your distributor 1st. There are also alot of Hacks like me that try to help as well! Good Luck!
