Holy shit people ARE becoming less self sufficient.
If it happens call a contractor and get it fixed. Having a branch come through the roof isn’t the same as taking a direct hit from a tornado. It can probably be watertight within one day.

The total cost depends on so many things. Call gmp and get an estimate.
If there is a pole on your property or at road bury conduit for primaries yourself and locate the transformer 300’ out from the house. Biggest expense will be conduit but it’ll be comparable to paying gmp for overhead. Rent a mini and put the conduit 40” down and you’re good.

A rough C-section recovery is more than 6 weeks. Average is 6 weeks.
With this proposal we’re basically saying take the minimal time you need to be able to work again. What about being with your newborn and not having your life destroyed by the stress and transition on top of postpartum.
If we give a shit about families at all 6 weeks is a joke.
SomeConstructionGuy t1_izbtw6u wrote
This is bullshit.
As an employer and employee and parent… just make it mandatory. If we solved this and child care we’d get so many young families to stay in the state. This would be a massive amount of stress taken away from young families.
I’d gladly pay into this so some one else can take time to be with their sick kids without missing a rent payment.

Common avgas is 100ll. It is a poor choice for most performance applications. It’s better than detonation or pump fuel but gives up a lot compared to an application specific performance fuel.

What specific fuel are you looking for? Leaded? Oxygenated? What displacement and rpm range?
110 doesn’t narrow it down much….

Reply to comment by Nutmegdog1959 in I'm looking for someone who Studs tires near Burlington area? by [deleted]
This guy gets it. Studding isn’t profitable, selling tires is. Distributors stud tires so they can sell more tires. If you don’t buy the tires from them why the heck would they stud them?
SomeConstructionGuy t1_iwky4c2 wrote
Very very few installers actually stud the tires. They order tires from the local distributor which will stud as needed locally. Problem is those warehouses won’t sell to consumers. So you’re asking a shop to ask their supplier for a favor. And you’re asking them to transport a set of tires they didn’t make markup on two ways for nothing.
You saved money buying online because someone forfeited markup. The trade off is now you don’t get the service that markup pays for.

Any licensure or just labor? If you have anything at all I’d run with it. If you just labored I’d still consider going that route. Everyone’s hiring.

I bought my first house at auction at 25 also. I didn’t ask strangers to research the history of the house for me, that’s what the town offices and an attorney are for.

They we’re. But you’re a lazy wannabe real estate investor.
If you’re so local why don’t you head over there and check it out? If you’re an actual investor why do you have absolutely no idea how to find this info? Because you’re not local, you’re lazy and you don’t know what you’re doing.
SomeConstructionGuy t1_it08qdi wrote
This is all easily available info if you know where to look and your even somewhat local. You obviously don’t know where to look and aren’t local.
Don’t come here and ask us to do your homework for an investment property.

Based on your posts I’d say the latter.
But hey you didn’t even state that as an option. You seem more ready to bail on the structure for the rest of the winter and flee the country.
Toss a tarp on it and call someone to deal with it.
