We have had over 35 pipe breaks the last two weeks...thats the ones I know about. There are some loses that come in and I have no clue about. So realistically 35-45. The temp dropped like crazy! :shock: :mrgreen:

Steven, whats the temperatures like where you are, when you started getting calls? Our coldest where I am was 16 degrees at night. Only warming to the low 30s during the day. Supposed to get to the upper 30s tomorrow so maybe I'll see some action then.

Nothing here yet, but it has not warmed up enough for the froze up pipes to really thaw and let loose yet. It has been about -10 F all week and colder with windchills. It felt a big warmer this morning (5 F above) and a warm up coming this week. We are bracing ourselves for the rush.

Ours started on Monday. 39 WDR jobs in 7 days. 3 guys in the field, me for inspecting, and 1 in the office. All equipment has been out since Tuesday. First time in 5 years to have all of it out. We are General Contractors so this is some fine job security. Many are overhead leaks so ceilings falling etc. 2 were complete packouts. Just an amazing amount of work for our small group. I have 93 hours in in 7 days. It was easier on me 20 years ago. I think I see another motorcycle trip in my future. All my subs are thrilled with getting the work. 3 more to start tomorrow.

I've been working non stop on a water damage/mold at one of the local malls (express). Once the plumbers get in there and move some pipes for us we should be able to finish in one night...I can't wait for a break...This job has to be done at night and I'm busy doing carpets and other things during the days...I'm glad we are almost done with this one...The best part of the job is coming up...The getting paid part...
