Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Good morning and welcome. It is time again for the
Home Improvement Show of the Midlands on one O three
point five FM and five sixty am WVOC. Good morning
and good to have you with us. I am Gary
David and coming up in the hour we'll be talking
to Trey Powell from Mosquito Joe. You may not have
seen them yet, you may not have been bitten by
one yet, but they are out there and Trey has
got the plan to get rid of them. Those mosquitoes

(00:37):
in your backyard and all those other past two around
the house. They take care everything over a Mosquito Joe.
We'll talk about it with Trey Russ Marcasey, the owner
of the Finishing Touch Team, those pro painters who have
worked on numerous occasions for my family. He'll be boy
to talk about professional painting and why it makes a
big difference. So that's coming up this morning on the

(00:58):
Home Improvement Show of the Middlands. And this guy gets
it started off. It is our friend Jeremy Holliday, mister Electric.
Good morning, my friend, Good morning Gary, good to see you.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Man. Hey.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
We want to talk today about signs that you might
have an electrical safety issue in your home or your business,
and this happens, I guess probably more often than we think.
I mean, we don't know where we're looking at, right,
that's right.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Yeah, we want to help homeowners recognize common warning signs
before a small issue turns up or turns into a
larger safety concern.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Okay, all right, So again, what's the old saying announcer,
prevention is worth of pound of cure.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah, you don't want to have an issue a way, Yeah,
you don't want an issue going on here that suddenly
becomes an even bigger issue and more constantly and a
more dangerous potentially issue as well.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
Right, yep, catch them while they're while they're small.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, So what are some of the what are some
of the things we can look for as homeowners and
business owners that might indicate there is some kind of
a bigger issue at least broad Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
So, uh, some of the biggest warning signs are the
ones that involve heat, uh, smell, sound, sparking, or repeated failure.
You know, if an outlet or a switch feels warm, uh,
if there's a burning smell, if you hear buzzing or crackling,
or if a breaker keeps tripping. Those are things homeowners

(02:26):
should not ignore. I'd also include like you know, scorch marks,
visible damage or any shock or.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Something like that.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
Yeah, where it's left some carbon print printing on there.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
What causes what's what's the spark itself?

Speaker 3 (02:41):
So yeah, yeah, so the spark itself. Anytime something is
sparking or uh trying to ignite, it leaves them mark.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
You know, so how often what what what's the root
cause of something like that? Or there are there are a
lot of different.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Loose connection you know, you could have a bad connection,
you know, uh, contamination with with you know, uh, you know,
oxidation if it's aluminum, you know, corrosion. Ah, it's all
sorts of things. Maybe maybe there's too much current being

(03:20):
pulled through there and it's damaged it. Uh so uh,
anytime there's any kind of arcing, sparking and you see that,
that's a huge warning sign.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Do you see the sort of thing, Jeremy, as much
as newer homes as you do see it everywhere it does.
It doesn't matter. So it's not it's not a thing
that the code has changed so much and you're up
to down the code and all it's still do these
things still happen.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
Yeah, it happens everywhere, and you know, uh, and you
just have to pay attention. So sometimes we get used
to some of the signs, you know, and maybe overlook them.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
I guess, if if it works, it must be okay.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Right right, that's that's the thing. But that's not right.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Answer.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
Yeah, that's the wrong answer. So you know, if it's
if it's hot, burning, buzzing, sparking, or tripping repeatedly, don't
ignore it time.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
So what's the repeat those again? Though? So this is
this is, this is what you're looking out for. Sparking, buzzing, hot, tripping,
right right right? Yeah, yeah, flickering, flickering like a light
for example, lights flickering because usually if I see a
light flicker, I think I'm thinking more it's the balls
gone bad or going bad.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
Yeah, and it could be, could be. But if it
you know, uh, when it becomes an annoyance or a
real safety concern, you know, the problem starts repeating or
getting worse. So the ball is burning out repeatedly, you know,
and it's just you know, you know there's something wrong,
but you're accepting it, like, oh, maybe you know it's

(04:55):
just this light fixture, but it could be all sorts
of different reason since, uh, maybe maybe you have voltage,
if it's in multiple areas, maybe have voltage issues. Or
maybe if it's in one area and maybe there's something
wrong with that light fixture and it should be taken
care of before something gets worse. Or maybe if it's

(05:15):
in one area, it's in the wiring in a circuit.
You know, we've we've come across homes where they've had
flickering lights and come to find out they have a
family of squirrels who've managed to nest in the corner
of the attic somewhere and chewing on the wiring. So sure,
oh yeah, that needs to be replaced before it turns
into something bigger. So you don't want to ignore those signs.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
Right when, you guys, and part of what you do
is free home inspections. You guys go through with a
very detailed checklist of checking everything. What just rough Ballpark estimate,
I mean, in what percentage of times do your folks
go into a home and you find something like this

(05:56):
is going on? Is it very is it very common?

Speaker 3 (05:59):
It's it's more common than you would think. You know,
you go into people's homes and the electrical system sometimes
is taken for granted just because electrical can work a
lot of times but be unsafe. So a lot of
times the things are working, sometimes we tend to think
it's okay. And so I would say, you know, it's

(06:22):
hard to come up with a percentage, but it's a lot,
it's a lot, I would say, Uh. You know, sometimes
we'll walk through a house being we were called out
for one issue, an outlet stopped working, and while we're there,
the customer will say, you know, this switch never worked
either or this, and they've been putting up with it

(06:42):
for you know, months or years even, and uh, and
it's led to the situation that they're calling us out
about now, and it's in it's a little bigger situation
because it wasn't pointed out when it first started happening.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Could it be the cause or could the culprit be
the way it was originally wired, that it was just
faulty workmanship, or is it more likely just to the
wear and tear over time or something like you mentioned
just kind of pops up and it creates an issue
because you build a home, I mean, this got to
be inspected before it could be occupied. But that's right,
that's a lot of wiring to inspect and if it's

(07:17):
this is cure. So what an inspector comes out. Of
course they come out in various stages because they have
to see all this wiring before the sheet rock gets
put up, right, I mean you can't come in after
the fact and really know what's going on behind those walls.
But I mean they can't catch everything. I mean as
they try, and.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
We have great inspectors, man, We love our inspectors. They
do a good job. The thing is, it's hard to
point out exactly without you know, an investigation and having
h a lot of information to find out exactly why
it happened. The point is if you if you see
the warning sign, you know, we want you to know

(07:57):
what they are and call us out because you know,
we help homeowners figure out what is really going on
and provide clear options.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
With with.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
You know, upfront pricing, you know, solutions that that we'll
keep it from going any further as a problem or
an issue and turn into a bigger problem.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Right. And I maybe ask you this, Jeremy, but is
is there like a number one culprit that causes these issues?
You mentioned voltage issues. I guess.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Now there's many. There's many culprits. You know, you could say,
you know, we all say water and electricity don't mix.
If you're getting water and moisture into things. Bad connections
over time. One of the time issues, you could say,
would be least connections, because everything expands and contracts based

(08:57):
on the usage of it. You're using it may warm
up and when you're not using it, it cools off. So
over a period of time it's microscopic, but it can
cause loose connections. So when you have something like that
that could that could you know, expose itself through lights,

(09:20):
flickering or buzzing noises, all the things we pointed out earlier.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
So you stop to think about it, Wow, I mean
light fixtures, all the electrical electrical outlets, all the on
off switches. I mean you start to there are a
lot of a lot of different places here that were
some something could go wrong. Yeah, it would almost seem
to me from a layman's perspective that sooner or later,

(09:47):
with all those options of something that could go wrong,
something's going to go wrong somewhere.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
Yeah, there's pretty good hundreds of connections. Yeah, something's going
to happen eventually, or you need an electrician.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
And I'm guessing it's not always necessarily right there at
that point, like the outlet of the light switch or whatever.
I mean, it could be somewhere deeper in the in
the wiring itself. Right.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
Oh yeah, We've went the homes and and uh, you know,
the the issues presenting itself in a bedroom, but it
comes out turns out it's the panel itself. We pulled
the breakers off the panel and inspect the bus inside
that panel, and it's damaged and has to be the
panel has to be replaced. The result in oh wow,
the whole that's the whole panel, the whole panel.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
So that's why we say, if you notice warning signs,
we want you to know the warning signs, call us out.
Don't ignore them because you know, a tripping breaker once
maybe okay, but repeatedly you can damage that panel if
you just keep resetting. It's tripping for a reason.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
It's but if you go if you go out and
you go like, okay, but the issue is not this outlet.
This looks all good right here. You know you expect
that you inspect the panel box and things seem to
look good. I mean, is it but somewhere in between
those two points there's an issue? And if so, again
this stuff is hidden behind sheet rock and everything else,

(11:08):
I mean, is there a way to track that down
and determine where the issue actually is a bit somewhere
in between or does it happen?

Speaker 3 (11:16):
Yeah, we have methods and we want to track it down.
We want to narrow it down to where the issue
is when we're out there. So we have tools, training, experience,
so all those things is why you want to call
us out to see what's going on there and narrow
it down to the area where it's where it's needs

(11:39):
to be corrected.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
So we talked about you guys do these free safety
inspections and every time you go out to a home,
if you do it, at least a version of that anyway,
maybe not the full blown, but you're doing a version
of it, right.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Yeah, we try to do a visual safety check on
the electrical system anytime we go out to a house,
and so that is one of the you know, it's
up to the customer. It's always up to we're there
to serve the customer, so uh, but we provide a
complementary safety check on every call we go out to.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
But as far as like a full blown home electrical inspection.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Now, if you're talking about troubleshooting, well that's work. That's uh,
we're taking fixtures out or removing outlets, we're opening up
the panel, we're going under the house, and you know,
tracing down wires and suits. Yeah, so we're we're working
at that point. So that's different than a safety check, sure. Yeah.

(12:37):
And then home inspections we have you know, you're talking
a full inspection where we're testing things as far as uh,
you know again going in the attic, going into the house.
We have documentation that we we provide you. That's a
little more thorough than basic safety check.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
And my point in asking is is there kind of
a timeline that a home or a business for that matter,
should should have this done every set number of years
or when it reaches a certain age. Obviously older homes,
but if your home is built in the last five years,
is that really necessary or is optional? I mean, you

(13:18):
can do it if you want to do it, but.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
Yeah, i'd say, you know, it's never a bad idea
to have an electrician out to your house to take
a look at what's going on there. It's a system
and it needs to be maintained. It needs to be
looked at every once in a while by somebody who's
got experience and knows what they're looking for and looking at.
You know, So if you see any of these warning
signs that we're talking about, then I would say, definitely

(13:42):
you want to call us out. We can do a
safety check, we can troubleshoot, and we can get to
the bottom of that before it turns into a bigger issue.
As far as doing a safety check periodically, we offer
them every two to three years. You know, we'll give
you one anytime you want one. Though, if you want
a safety check every time we show up, we're more

(14:05):
than willing. If it's been two weeks, we'll do another
safety check, no problem, I.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Guess, not too much of a good thing. But again,
let's let's repeat those things that we may witness as
homeowners that we go not a big deal, it's working,
not a big deal. What are those warning signs that
something bigger might be a bruin here?

Speaker 3 (14:26):
So I've got a list of warning signs here, you know,
breakers that trip repeatedly, flickering or dimming lights, warm or
hot outlets and switches, burning smells, buzzing and crackling or
humming sounds. Outlets that stop working or only work sometimes
scorch marks or discoloration, shocking or tingling when touching switches,

(14:49):
outlets or appliances. A panel that smells hot, looks corroded,
or has rust or moisture, frequently blowing fuses, extension cords
being used, permanent solutions. You know those are all big
warning signs that we need we need an electrician.

and always getting great information from folks to fix it
or they get it fixed up, or or just to

that right now with Trey pal Mosquito Joe Fame. Trey,

(18:06):
good morning, welcome to the program, my friend.

Speaker 5 (18:09):
Thank you, good morning.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
How are you. I'm well. I am well. So we've
had it's April now, we've had some some some cool mornings.
We've had some hot days, and while you might not
have seen one yet or gotten chomped on by one, yet,
they're out there right those skeeters.

Speaker 5 (18:27):
Oh yeah, are and they are you know, are the
pressure is rising. We you know, it's funny. We've had
some some mornings where it's in the fifties and it
feels very cool. But as long as that temperature is
above fifty degrees, it is go time for mosquitoes. It's
you know, they probably like it better on those eighty
degree days, but we you know, those cool mornings are

(18:50):
are not slowing them down at all. The mosquito eggs
are hatching and they are doing their thing.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Remind us again, Trey, we've talked about this before, how
fast you can go from zero to sixty when it
comes to a mosquito infestation and a property.

Speaker 5 (19:08):
Yeah, so the type of mosquitoes that we have, they
can lay up to three hundred eggs every few days,
so you know, they could lay on average maybe one
hundred eggs a day and they only need to mate
once and then they will lay eggs for the rest
of their life, which a female mosquito might live four

(19:30):
to six weeks. So yeah, and you know you're talking,
you know, you know, thousands of eggs a week, you know,
for you know, a typical female mosquito. So it doesn't
take many mosquitoes to multiply very quickly. And you know,
so it's when at this time of year, they once

(19:54):
they lay those eggs, those eggs are hatching pretty much
immediately and they only take you know, less than a
week to go through their larval stage. So you know,
once she lays those eggs, those eggs become adult mosquitoes
right now seven to ten days. As we get to May,
it'll be less than that, it might be four to
seven days, and it will remain like that for the

(20:16):
rest of the summer. And so you know, the conditions
are ideal and they are multiplying and the eggs are hatching.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
So they come out, come out swinging it sounds like.

Speaker 5 (20:27):
Hum oh, oh, they do.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
They do.

Speaker 5 (20:30):
So any mosquito eggs that have been overwintering and in incubation,
you know, the temperature is consistently above fifty degrees. They
are hatching and they are going through that larval stage,
and so you know, thousands and thousands of mosquitoes come
are on their way.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
So let me ask you this. I was reading this
past week that meteorologists are we'll probably see by next
months that you mentioned may an el Nino pattern develop,
and met rodgers are saying we're likely to have a
super el Nino, which, while on the positive side, by

(21:16):
the way, if you've not heard this, a super el
Nino reduces the potentially produces the hurricane activity in the
Atlantic basin, which is good news, okay, all right, but
it also brings more rainfall and hotter summers. Last time
we had an El Nino around here was twenty twenty two,

(21:36):
and we had one of the hotest summers on a record.
Those two factors right there, the heat and the rainfall.

Speaker 5 (21:44):
Lots of heat and lots of rain is going to
you know, I think that's why we're seeing, you know,
much higher activity of all insects this year already, and
that does that all lines up. When you have a
lots of heat and lots of rain, you're gonna have
lots of bugs.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
So it's more than just more mosquitoes, there's more everything.

Speaker 5 (22:06):
Yeah, you're you're creating conditions. We're all insects are going
to really thrive, and so yeah, it's you know, things
things heated up very quickly. You know, for us, we
saw phones ringing much earlier than we've seen in the past,
and you know, it's it's it's shaping up to be

(22:27):
a bad season for mosquitoes.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
I don't know if you recall the summer of twenty
twenty two, and I don't off the top of my head,
they're all hot to me. But yeah, I don't know
if that was a busier one for you guys, if
you recall or not. But about here, I was the
last time we had an al Ninho. So that's that's
making a comeback here.

Speaker 5 (22:43):
Yeah, I wouldn't say, you know, once you get into
the throes of things, it's you know, we're we live
in the southeast. We always have lots of rain and heat,
and so we always have a pretty bad mosquito problem.
I'm sure it's worse in some years than others. I
think that you know, more often than not, it's the
years that where we have Indian summers that go into

(23:05):
December that that I'll remember more so than you know
than you know how intense it was, you know, during
that particular year. But it certainly can vary. It's going
to be based on weather. And you know what you're
saying with the you know, more heat, more rain is
obviously going to impact insects of all sorts.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
You've talked about it before, but you guys were outspraying
until really just ahead of Thanksgiving, which might surprise some people.
You know, my summer is long gone, but you know, just.

Speaker 5 (23:35):
Because summer's temperature is consistently above fifty degrees and that's
typically the case is you know, we're we generally go
till about mid November, but we've definitely had years here
and there where we go go ahead and go into December.
People are like, yeah, we we still want to keep treating,
and so you know, we are here year round, and

(23:58):
you know it's we're going to start and based on
the weather. But generally speaking, in most years that's about
mid February till about mid November. But there are years
when you know, it makes sense to start earlier, and
there's years when it makes sense to continue on. We're
just gonna you know, you know, base it on on
the weather and how that's affected.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
Yeah, for folks who don't know, this is a recurring service.
Every three weeks, you're out there laying down that barrier spray,
but you're doing more than just laying down the barrier spray, right, yeah.

Speaker 5 (24:30):
That you know, I would say half of what we
do is larva siding, which is is finding where they're breeding.
You know, they're if you have mosquitoes, you've got standing
water somewhere on that property. It's probably not obvious, and
it doesn't have to be. It's not a swimming pool,
you know, it's going to be the bottom of flower
pots that are up underneath the deck that have been

(24:51):
forgotten about, or bucket left behind the shed. You know,
get drains and gutters and things that are out of sight,
out of mind, all can breed mosquitoes. Heavy leaf litter,
you know, on the other side of a fence can
be a big breeding ground for mosquitoes, and so we
try and find where they're breeding. And then treat that
with a larvacide so that those larvae are never born

(25:15):
into adult mosquitoes. Because as soon as they come from
the larval stage through the pupa stage to adult mosquito,
they're biting the first day they're mating, and then they're
biting to start laying eggs. You know, as soon as
they're born, they're born as an adult. And so if
they're never born, they can't bite, and they also can't
lay an eggs, so they can't multiply. And so the

(25:38):
very best thing you can do to control mosquitoes is
find where they're breeding and either get rid of it
or treat it with a larvacide so that they're never born.
I mean, when you're doing that consistently every three weeks
like we do, you are significantly lowering the population of
mosquitoes in that particular yard. And so that's fifty percent

(25:59):
of what we do. And then yes, we do spray
the yard to you know, eliminate the adult mosquitoes that
are there so that they'll stop laying eggs and then
you can get control of that property real quick.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
How much more difficult tray is it to uh to
really as you guys say, and as you guys do
make out side fun again, how much more difficult is
it for someone who calls you saying I don't know July,
as opposed to somebody who starts the treatment like this
time of the year, you know, February, March, April.

Speaker 5 (26:28):
Yeah, so the earlier the better. Obviously, we want to
we want to eliminate them before you ever start seeing them.
But we can get a hold of them pretty quick,
and we can get control of them pretty quick. You know,
if they're calling in now or in May, you know,
it's we What we do in that case is when
they're getting a late start, we kind of do an

(26:50):
accelerated program, meaning their first true two treatments are going
to be seven to ten days apart, and then we're
going to try and break that breeding cycle, and then
we're going to put them on in every three week
you know program. So you know, if somebody's new and
they're calling in, you know, later in the season and
we're gonna we're going to do an accelerated start to

(27:11):
get control and break that breeding cycle, and then it'll
be in every three weeks maintenance you know program.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
After that, Why is it every three weeks.

Speaker 5 (27:18):
Stroy, Well, we have a lot of UV here, and
UV is the number one thing that will break down
you know, anything and everything, you know, whether it's you know,
man made fixtures and things like that, you know that
are outside. But it also breaks down these products, and

(27:40):
so we put that product down and it's not just
an instant knockdown. There is a residual, you know, so
that if the next day or the next week or
two weeks later, if you have a mosquito that tries
to come across the fence, they're going to land in
what we've treated and they're going to be eliminated. But
that product breaks down in place, does not get down

(28:01):
into the soil or or down into the water supply.
It breaks down in place. But in about three weeks
it's kind of done its thing and it needs to
be replaced. If you don't replace it every three weeks,
you're going to start getting gaps and you're gonna start
seeing breakthrough. And so, you know, we want to keep

(28:21):
you get you to where you're not seeing mosquitos. You
can go outside anytime, day or night, and it's and
it's like that all summer. You know, you don't want
to have gaps in that, and so we treat every
three weeks and we guarantee it, you know, so if
there is any breakthrough, you call us and we come
back immediately and and fix whatever wherever, whatever's going on,

(28:44):
you get you right back on track.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
So it's not just gonna be the mosquitoes that are
in abundance this summer if this on develops as they
say it will. But you mentioned all the other insects too,
but you got to fix for that.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
We do.

Speaker 5 (28:56):
We're a full service pest control company. We do we
do you turn my We do home pest defense, keeping cockroaches, ants, spiders,
things like that out of the house. You know, pretty
much any any pest inside or out, we handle it.
We do rodent control, keeping mice and rats out of
the house, you know, and we will come in and

(29:18):
solve a problem. But the majority of what we're doing
is pest prevention, and that is keeping you to where
you're not having these sorts of problems where you've got
ants in the pantry or spiders in the bathroom and
things like that.

Speaker 1 (29:34):
And I'm mention this again too, because I didn't even
realize you had such a product. But a couple of
months ago. I'd mentioned to you while we're on the
air one day talking about this, that you guys have
been doing well. You've been in our mosquita stuff for
as long as I can remember, so I don't even
worry about mosquitos having for years. But yeah, you do
our home total defense control as well, which was fantastic. Yeah,

(29:57):
but the problem was as we go outside on the
back deck to have dinner or even a cup of coffee,
and here come the flies. And I just kind of
threw that out one day talking. He said, oh wow,
you said I got something for that.

Speaker 5 (30:10):
We do, and that flies can't be targeted in the
same way as mosquitoes or other insects. You have to
go after them specifically generally you're baiting them, but they
can be eliminated and controlled as well. You just you
got to speak up, got to tell us what issues
you're having, and then we'll provide a solution, you know,

(30:31):
for that as well.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
Well. I will tell you that since you started doing
that at our house, we are enjoying dinner on the
back deck and around the pool when everything else, or
just a cup of coffee, because I very seldom see
a flyback door anymore. That's a good thing going.

Speaker 5 (30:46):
You know, it's funny because pests can be so aggravating
that you just can't enjoy your outdoor space. Whether it's
mosquitoes biting you, nats getting in your eyes, flies that
are on your food. It just makes it where it's
just not worth it when you're dealing with that, and
people just get frustrated, they get up and they just

(31:07):
go inside. And you don't don't have to live like that, right, No.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
Huh no, No, So let's talk specifics here, Trey and
a mosquito joe where you can you can take the
mosquito control by itself, you can take the home pest
control by itself. But I'm guessing that most people who
do one or the other are doing both anyway. So
if you put them together, do you save money? Yeah.

Speaker 5 (31:28):
We we will bundle these services and you know where
we're coming out. You know, not all of them are
on the same interval. We do every three weeks for
mosquito flee and tick, but if we're doing home pest defense,
that can be bi monthly or even quarterly, and we'll
match them up so that we're coming out and doing
both on the same day, and so that we can
we can reduce the cost when we're we're doing that

(31:51):
so they can save money. If they're bundling services, we
can put it all into one low monthly payment and
so they're just paying year round, one low monthly payment,
and we just come and take care of whatever issues
you know on that particular interval.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Okay, And for the mesquita control itself. I mean, you
guys have always done this you and I assume you
still do that. If you folks never tried you before,
you'll let them try it out at a discount of rate.

Speaker 5 (32:22):
Right, Yeah, We we want to earn your business the
right way, so we will do it below cost. Their
first treatment is only thirty nine dollars if you've never
tried us before, and we'll honor that on any of
our services. And then after that it's you're just pay
as you go by the interval, depending on whether it's
every three weeks or every two months or every or

(32:43):
every quarter.

Speaker 1 (32:45):

it came out nice. Yeah, it was beautiful, it did.
It came out really funny.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
Backstory, by the way, somehow it got written down as
it was a shed. Oh and when you guys came
out to paint, they look and I said, this is
the biggest show we've ever sew.

Speaker 7 (35:29):
Yeah, I'd say so, I'll take one of those sheds
in my backyard right right.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
And hey, Lisa's back with us, Lisa Jurgensen from Via Alon.
Good to see you. See you now we we've had
John before with Russ and y'all have that relationship between
each other. You know, you you do stuff for Russ
and Russ does stuff for you. And you are and
I should mention vi Alon you were the folks who
haven't heard you with us before. You're in the interior
design business, which you know I think is fascinating. I

(35:57):
have no eye for such things, Okay, no clue at all. Sure,
but now I've been married thirty five years. One of
the reasons why is I know when to defer to
my better that's right, right, smart, But he's got a
pretty good eye for such things.

Speaker 3 (36:12):
Act sure makes her happy blind when it comes to that.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
But I'm always fascinated by it, Lisa. I mean, how
did you get into this, just this line of work.

Speaker 8 (36:24):
I'll tell you what. I grew up in Atlanta and
I actually taught school Andy Springs Middle School for six years.

Speaker 1 (36:34):
Yeah, god bless.

Speaker 8 (36:35):
Yeah, I claim to fame as I taught Usher Raymond.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
Oh yeah that.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
Guy, right, I got kids, Yeah right, they were kids
at the time. Yeah he was.

Speaker 8 (36:49):
He was fun. Little did I know he turned in
to be a famous.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
I should have got some autographs.

Speaker 8 (36:56):
They can sign something.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
Well, he's probably he could probably use a good and
your designer on things.

Speaker 8 (37:01):
So yeah, they're too bad. I didn't get to decorate
one of his many homes. But we moved here in
nineteen ninety eight, and I actually do y'all remember the
well Irmo the Irmo News little letter.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Oh somebody.

Speaker 8 (37:19):
When I finished doing our house moving in, she came
by and just to see and she wanted to do
a little article on me. And and so from there
it started, uh where she just did this little print
up of my house of how I decorated. And then
I started working for Irmo Interiors, which was that I remember,
and that's where we met. And I just started working

(37:44):
there and then I did a parade of homes and
and then I was.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
Do they have do they still do the preado homes by.

Speaker 8 (37:52):
The way, Well not really.

Speaker 2 (37:54):
I didn't think so Okay, it was a lot of work.
Somebody asked me at the other day too. I didn't.
I couldn't. I didn't remember if they're doing it any longer.

Speaker 8 (38:01):
So some cities, but here they might just do like
one home in just one room, like a design er
take one room and.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
It's a lot.

Speaker 8 (38:08):
It's a lot.

Speaker 2 (38:09):
It was a lot.

Speaker 8 (38:10):
But I was blessed to get State's Best for three years.

Speaker 2 (38:14):
Fantastic.

Speaker 8 (38:15):
Yeah, get my daughter and her friends to call in.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
You all kind of fell into this.

Speaker 8 (38:23):
I mean yeah, I was always interested in designing and
just that I I think you do have to have.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
It's a talent.

Speaker 8 (38:32):
You have to have that, just like anything else. A
musician has to have that talent. But and my friends
are like, oh, don't come to my house, you're gonna
pick out Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
Well kind of like with Russ. We've talked about this before.
You know, you're cursed now, Russ, because you can't walk
in anywhere without studying them.

Speaker 7 (38:52):
All the time, right all the time. And I get
the same thing Lisa. You know, they're like, don't look
too close at the paint job, you know, or things
like that all the time. But yeah, you know, you
just develop an eye for it is what you do,
and especially when it comes to designing and colors, and
you know, it's just it's it's not that it's not
very easy to do right to make it look at

(39:13):
the end all put together like it like it grew
there and it was supposed to be there, and all
the different colors and things and things that you wouldn't
even imagine would would go with something else, and it
it and it works. It looks fantastic, and it's uh,
it's very interesting, and it's just a great it's a
great partnership that her and I have with us because hey,
look we're in there doing all the painting form We're

(39:33):
we're Lisa's you know, selecting all the colors. We're working
on a customer right now, Pam, where it's working out perfect,
where she's actually wanting some renovation things done that Lisa's
handling for her, coordinating all that will be coming in.
We'll be doing all of our kitchen cabinetry, possibly removing
some popcorn ceilings, I think for in her house.

Speaker 8 (39:56):
Debating what to do, like what's the best option for.

Speaker 7 (40:00):
You know, yeah, and it just works out great. Lisa
works with the customers with their budget, with their you know,
their wish list, what they really want to get done,
and we kind of put it all together and uh,
you know, it just works out really nice.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
It's a very it's a very nice system.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Well, Lisa, suddenly you're sounding almost as much as a
contractor as you are an interior designer.

Speaker 8 (40:19):
Well that I have to have a big team, and
the first thing that people do want is paint, and
so Russ is always you know, it's the.

Speaker 7 (40:28):
Biggest bang for your buck, right yeah, gosh, yeah, you know,
you can really transform something with just a little bit
of color and it's not knocking walls down necessarily, right.

Speaker 8 (40:37):
So yeah, just refreshing this house that we're talking about
that she heard us on the radio, but it's a
nineteen sixties the paneling, cabinets, and she lacks that look.
So we're not going to come in and make her
you know, let's gout. Let's got this kitchen, so we're
maintaining the footprint. Russ is going to just repaint we're

(40:57):
going to get some new flooring. She's got the old hinges.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
Yeah, I'm the cabinets, that's right, they're gonna.

Speaker 8 (41:04):
They're gonna stay on there, but we're gonna we're gonna
redo them.

Speaker 1 (41:08):
I'm guessing some folks are maybe hesitant to enless the
the the help of an interior designer because they feel like,
number one, are you gonna come in and immediately judge them? Right?
A lot of times, yeah, sure you're gonna come in.
You're gonna say, oh no, you have to do this,
and you have to do that. But this example here,
you know, the customers always run.

Speaker 8 (41:29):
You have absolutely you have to. You'll give your advice
and and you have to make them happy living there.
And so exactly just with rust painting and the cabinets
are gonna look amazing. And she's got an older bathroom
with the lovely pink flooring, but she doesn't really want
to gut it. So we're just gonna we're gonna make

(41:51):
it fun.

Speaker 7 (41:52):
Yeah, we're gonna give it a facelift, is what we're
gonna do, you know. And yeah, and it is they
you know, And I've heard least to tell customers this
before you know and she you know, that's the one
great thing about Lisa, and I've worked with her plenty
of times with this, She's not pushy whatsoever. She's not
pushing her influence and styles on these customers, right. Each
each person has their own you know, likes and dislikes

(42:14):
and style to it, right, sure, And that's.

Speaker 2 (42:16):
What Lisa Cater's to okay.

Speaker 7 (42:18):
And and I have seen other designers in the past
throughout the last twenty something years where they have done
that and pushed their influence on it. And at the
end of the day, the customer is just not happy.
They're just not because it's not it's not them, right,
They don't they don't feel comfortable in it. And I've
even heard her say, you know, this is your house.
You have to live here. Okay, we don't, you do,

(42:38):
so you have to be happy with it, of course, right.

Speaker 1 (42:40):
And so.

Speaker 7 (42:42):
Yeah, it's just and a it's a bit of a
process working through it all. But as long as the
customers happy at the end, like you said, Gary, that's
that's all that matters, you know. And this one, I'm
excited about this one because it is an older style home,
but is as soon as her and I walked in.
Both of us were looking at each other and we're like, man,
we love this house, like it was the nicest house.

Speaker 1 (43:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (43:03):
Yeah, talk back in the neighborhood. We never even really
knew their houses back there. So yeah, just a really.

Speaker 8 (43:08):
Cool, cool Probably one thing with interior is you give
them guidance, even if they're not going to do a
whole lot, but just give them guidance, guidance on what
flows and the colors that flow, and you know a lot.
Well like you you were going to do with your
poolhouse that do it yourself where you just you're going
to do it a certain point and then he would

(43:30):
I could get and then I mean, you know, you
just I do. I do talk them out of some
things like that. Go trust me, it's gonna you know what,
it's for.

Speaker 7 (43:41):
Their better interest always, you know, and things like that exactly. Yeah, yeah,
it just makes more tying.

Speaker 8 (43:46):
To make it right. Do you all remember that football
he was actually a basketball coach. John Wooden has a quote,
if you don't have time to do it right, when
will you have time to do it again?

Speaker 2 (43:58):
That's right, that's a great quote.

Speaker 5 (44:02):
You know.

Speaker 1 (44:03):
I use that for everybody.

Speaker 8 (44:04):
Go like you're gonna find you run into problems if
you try to do not seeing you can't do it
yourselfers can't do.

Speaker 2 (44:12):
It, but sure rep.

Speaker 8 (44:14):
Word that they just want to hurry and get it
done and then they're gonna come back and have to
redo it.

Speaker 2 (44:19):
Yeah, in case you han't heard.

Speaker 1 (44:20):
The rest of the story though, that that was the
idea of our poolhouse was we were gonna do the
bottom half and then have Russia's folks come into the
top half because I'm just too old to get on
the ladder that high up. And then you know, we're
sitting out there. You know you came out and take
a look at it and thought, yeah, this is stupid, Gary,
because I'm gonna you know, maybe not right away, but
at some point we're gonna look at it and say, okay,

(44:42):
yeah that's the part we painted, and that's the part
the pros did. Okay, Yeah, it wouldn't have been a
good idea. Yeah, I don't know, Rush, you madeo something
you already made me think about this, and I don't know, Lisa,
Sometimes do you feel like interior designs try to do
too much? You know, you're hiring me, so you know,
here's the do this, this, this, this, and this.

Speaker 8 (45:01):
Well, one thing that I'll do is we'll come in
and make a plan and you don't have to do
everything right away. So if she's just focusing our clients
on a kitchen one room, well, eventually down the line
they might want to move on into the dining room
or the you know, existing rooms. But you've got a
plan that you can you know, we can just develop.

(45:22):
But you know, it's the one room now and a
year later we'll move on to that room. But we
had that plan.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
And maybe sometimes people have the maybe the misconception of
the designer is going to try to do too much
in the in the vein of you know, too much stuff.
It's just, you know, I don't need all that, you know.
I was just oh yeah aah, going back, told you
that you're the ones got to live there, right.

Speaker 8 (45:47):
This is the homeowner, right, And I do renderings for
them so they actually really see how it's going to
look and we make changes like that's just not me
and you know, so so we really talk through the
design of how the room is actually going to look.
And so I don't force anything. I don't force expensive.

(46:09):
I've got so many furniture suppliers and all kinds of
people that you don't you stay within their budget.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
That's right.

Speaker 8 (46:16):
We've got so many people.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
You have a lot of options with that. Yeah, you
really do, just over the years.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
Sure, just curiosity. It's going to vary from job to job,
I know. But I mean from your standley, you go
into a place brand new, never seen it before. What's
the typical what's your what's your process and your method
for going from okay to this is what we got

(46:41):
to do or this is my suggestions? How long does
that take?

Speaker 2 (46:44):
I mean, yeah, a good question.

Speaker 8 (46:45):
I mean you have to kind of ponder when you
go in there. I'll take good pictures and it does
take some time to think through things. What the first
thing that comes to my mind is how am I
going to make this space better for their life? And
how they can you know, can we should we move walls?
Should we well?

Speaker 7 (47:05):
And a lot of it revolves around budget, right right.
You know, people have their budget, okay, and that's what
she'll do. She'll come right in there, and you know,
you got to know where your budget's at, right, because
you can want all these different things done throughout the house,
but your budget may just be for one room or
you know, or maybe two rooms or whatever the case is.

(47:26):
But you know, and that's where she's great because she'll
work within that budget and get the most out of
it that makes sense for that space, you know. And
she's told me that before personally, you know, we want
to do all these different things in our house, and
she's you know, let's just start with this one room here,
and let's get this, you know, completed, and then we
can move on to the other ones. And it makes

(47:47):
you feel better too. It kind of takes a weight
off of you a bit when you kind of look
at it that way, so you don't have to be
so overwhelmed possibly and you can you can take one
bite at it out of it at a time, is
basically what it is.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
You know.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Yeah, I'm gonna ask you questionally some lead. This is
leading to something else, and we'll talk about with Russ
about here in a moment. Kitchens those are massive jobs.

Speaker 2 (48:11):
They can be they are Oh they can't.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
Oh yeah, they can be when somebody really wants I mean,
if you want to, if you wanted to gut and
redo a kitchen.

Speaker 3 (48:23):
Fifty sixty thousand, we talked about that.

Speaker 8 (48:25):
It was about depending on what you want to do
just totally with new cabinets and flooring and backsplash, you
can get ninety thousands easily.

Speaker 2 (48:36):
Yeah, easily, depending on your selections a lot.

Speaker 8 (48:39):
And that's where it comes in with their budget and
we'll we'll say, with this budget, this is what you
can which you can do exactly.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (48:45):
I mean how often have you all work together on
what RUSS specializes in and that is the refinishing and
refreshing of these kitchen.

Speaker 7 (48:55):
Cab cabinets and all, oh you know, and tons and
tons of when we worked on. Yeah, And that's a
great point, Gary, like talking about budget. Right, they may
go into it, like let's say it's a kitchen. They
may go into it and they have the idea of
possibly ripping the cabinets out or doing new cabinet tree
or something like that. Right, but maybe the budget doesn't
quite fit all that, or if they didn't do that,

(49:16):
they could get something else done, right, Right, that's where
we can come in with kitchen cabinets. For example, we
both work with the same cabinet guys. They can add
crown molding to your cabinets, they can reface the cabinets
obviously we'll go through them and take all the doors off,
prep everything, paint them up beautiful just like they're brand new.
And it's a fraction of the cost.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
Well you think about it, I mean, the shelves or
the shelves exactly right, the boxing sure right, the doors
unless you want to change the design you know, or
whatever put the doors or what make the cabinets right.
So yeah, you talk about if you're gonna dump that
much money into basically buying new doors for your cabinets,

(49:57):
it's insane.

Speaker 2 (49:58):
Right, it can be right.

Speaker 8 (50:00):
And if the cabinets are in good shape and you
don't need you know, they're not falling apart, we try
to salvage that football we do.

Speaker 2 (50:08):
Yeah, absolutely we do.

Speaker 7 (50:09):

be a hinge swap. Okay, like you've got the old
school hinges on there, So we'll have one of our
cabinet guys come in. They'll they'll swap out the hinges

the limit on it. You can do whatever you want
to do. We can salvage exactly what you have and
make it look completely different, or you can you know,

different things. Yeah, adding shelves, pull out shelves for certain
areas of the cabins that you know, things like that.
