We are up 50% from last March. 2 commercial accounts that we did put us over the top.

April is looking great already.

Same here buddy but the phone is starting to ring more now. Plus the breaks of good weather has helped.

This is the best first quarter I have had in six years. To top it off we had an early spring in N.C. Mid 80's here today!

I haven't had a day off in three weeks. Easter will be my first day off and all the out-laws are coming for dinner. Haven't done my taxes yet. It's good to be making money. I have a mountain of debt.

March, started out way slow but ended with a bang. Even though it was spring break here this past week and pretty slow we still ended up 78.9% from last year. Again comparing to start up numbers. I look for April to be real good.

Rock Start status for a traditionally slow month and booked out in almost the second week of April, just waiting for the hammer to fall!

March was down but Jan/Feb were up enough that we are up 4% for the quarter. Our Fire & Water are up 10% from last year.

Nothing to jump up and down about but at least it's improvement. :wink:

Mike for the first quarter the cleaning side was off 20%. I attribute a lot of that to the nasty weather we've had. Heck it snowed 4 inches two weeks ago, between it and the cold we just couldn't catch a break until recently.

The cleaning has actually picked up with the nicer weather, so right now I'm hoping that's a trend that continues.

We had 5 inches of snow not too long ago here in Dallas...I'm glad my Sacramento location is still going strong.
The Dallas location is really starting to do well even with the bad weather. It may have something to do with me just about killing myself to get new work. :D

Funny how much survival motivates a person!

My aunt live in Fort Worth, and they loved the snow, said it reminded her of home. :roll:


Does she need her carpet or tile cleaned???? :D
