Speaker 1 (00:22):
Good morning and happy Mother's Day weekend. Welcome to the
Home Improvement Show of the Midlands and thanks for tuning
in this morning here on one O three point five
FM and five sixty AM WVOC, and of course, anywhere
you are traveling this spring this summer, you can always
take us with you on the totally free and very
cool iHeartRadio app. Just be sure and set WVOC as
(00:43):
your number one preset right there. And hey, if you
miss out on catching the show one Saturday morning, you
can always catch the replay on the app as well.
All right, coming up, we got terrific information to pass
along this morning. As always, we'll talk about landscape lighting,
you know, enhancing your outdoor or warrior indoor for that matter,
with a Jeremy Holliday, mister Electric. They do a lot
(01:05):
of that. Matter of fact, I got some projects I
want to talk to about for our place, so we'll
do that. Mosquito season, our season if you felt it yet,
there are forecasts to say we're already in the extreme mode.
We'll talk about that with Trey Powell. And by the way,
everything else they're doing now because they're no longer just
treating for mosquitoes they're doing total home pest control including
(01:25):
ants and cockroaches and silverfish and well road and control
as well. They can handle that for you for Mosquito Joe.
So we'll discuss that with Trey Powell and Russ Barcasey
from the Finishing Touch Team will be here. I use
all these folks at my place. The Finishing Touch Team
just wrapped up a project for us repainting the pool
house and our new home and point do they do
(01:46):
an outstanding job. We'll talk about the process and why
the prep work is so incredibly important, and maybe give
some time to talk about that cabinet resurfacing, re finishing
special that got going on as well, which could save
you tens of time, houses of dollars. All that coming
up on the Home Improvement Show of the Midlands on
this Saturday morning, and it's always thank you so much
for being with us. We get started though this morning
(02:08):
with Beaver Roofing and Gutters and Summer. Good morning, Summer,
good morning, good morning. I want to talk about roofs
today and in particular a service that you offer at
Beaver Roofing and Gutters. And they talk about this when I,
you know, talk about y'all all the time here on
on during the weekday show, And yeah, you guys, sure
you do roof replacements, absolutely, but not all local roofing
(02:31):
companies do roof repairs. You do, and you are not
going to put somebody to the back of the line
just because they have a minor problem of problems.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
A problem exactly exactly.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Let's talk about you know, doing doing our best and
not get to the point where there is a problem
and that comes from something else you do on a
regular basis, and those are free roof inspections absolutely.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
So we always say, you know, new year, new me
kind of thing, or you know that through a thing, well,
new Year, let's check out your roof. A lot of things,
like our cars, we're like, oh okay, it's kind of
in our face. We need to get the oil change,
we need to do these maintenance things. But you know, roof,
(03:15):
your roof doesn't come with a pop up light or
something that just goes off. It's just you know, you
start seeing stains on your ceilings and things of that
nature before before you're like, oh my gosh, this is
a problem. So yeah, we do free roof inspections and
that is where you know, we just go up there,
take a look, see what's going on with your roof,
(03:37):
because I mean some people may, but not a lot
do get up on the roof and just take a check,
see what's going on. We have harsh summers, we have
harsh winters, and with that, you know, expansion contraction of
the ceiling in our roofs, and you know, things can
(03:57):
get out of whack before we know it. So yeah,
we we loved doing those free inspections and helping out
our customers and seeing what we have, you know, what
we can do.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, I mean all came out to my parents' home
not long ago when we put that house on the
market and did a roof inspection. And it's not just
a couple of small things, but it's a couple hundred
bucks to get fixed. But I mean that was it.
But that that that certainly could could could save you
down the road because those little things eventually become big.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Things, absolutely, And like you, like you mentioned, you know
you're going on going on the market, you know, for
the new buyer, just you know, having that peace of
mind knowing, hey we we have a roof inspection. We
just had this taking a look at Yep, we did
the repairs that were needed, but everything else looks good.
So that also is like a good you know, hey,
(04:43):
we do have a report for our roof. That's that's right,
because they can be costly if you know, you have
to have that replaced or you know, that's just in
the back of people's minds whenever they're making that purchase.
So yeah, that's exactly right, and that we we make
the smaller hairs and you know, let it roll. We're
not going to say, oh, yeah, you need a replacement
(05:04):
absolutely because it's not always the case.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Right exactly, So when your folks get up there, what
specific things they're looking for. What were the big things
that get right?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
So you know, maybe you know, just for an every
day RUTH inspection, we're gonna get up there. We're going
to take a look at any penetrations in the roof
and those will generally be pipe boots or events, and
obviously those do come out of the shingle, so there
is going to be a hole made there. So we're
going to check around those to make sure that the
(05:38):
celent that was placed during the installation is not dried up,
shriveled up, or you know, even displaced from wind or
things things like that, because like I mentioned before, harsh winters,
harsh summers, expansion and contraction of that celing.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
It happens.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
And even those can be just a pest. Whenever they start,
you know, if they start leaking, they'll come through. You
would see in the bathrooms or the kitchens, just you know,
water staining around that area. And nine times out of
ten that's what it's from, one of those boots or penetration.
So that's one main thing we're looking at.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Does that seem to be the thing the thing that
most often is is an issue? Do you see? You
see that a lot, don't you We do?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
We see it a lot. And and thankfully it's a
it's a it's an easy fix. You know, it's not,
oh my goodness, we need to you know, take half
of your roof off in this and that. You know,
generally it's a nice easy fix if you catch it early.
You know, it can be more, you know, extensive. If
it's leaking, leaking, leaking, leaking, leaking, leaking and you don't
(06:45):
know it. That's another thing. If it's leaking, leaking, leaking
and it's not coming into the ceiling, if it's just
like say, you know, just going into the attic or
into the insulation and it's catching, that could lead to
bigger problems. So that's another reason it's great to have
these these routine roof inspections every year. It doesn't matter
(07:06):
if your home is new or old, because it's just
nice to know what's going on. So that's, you know,
another thing we're looking at around those.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Yep, the pipe boots and fittings. All right, what else
are your folks looking at? Carefully?
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Here, we're going to be looking for nail pops, and
that's exactly what it sounds like. You know, sometimes the
nails pop up in the shingles from the installation. That
generally happens once the roof is showing a little bit
of age or if the if the shingle kind of
gets worn down a bit, not a big issue. What
(07:41):
we do with that is we put, you know, a
little dab of ceiling over that to make sure that
that is sealed and water cannot penetrate through that. Through
that area, we're also going to be looking for if
there's any debris on the roof that holds moisture. If
you have a lot of leaves, kind of straw things
like that that accumulates on your roof and it doesn't
(08:03):
you know, come off very easily. That can hold water,
and that water is just going to be sitting there
and that can make its way through those cracks and
it can lead to possible decking rot and would need
to be replaced.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Right, you've mentioned before. I know we always hear the
thirty year shingle, the thirty year shingle in an environment
like we live here in South Carolina upbout you with
that summertime heat. I believe you've told us before. Yeah,
thirty year shingles aren't really thirty year shingles.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
They're not. No, they're getting about half of that life expectancy.
If you're getting about fifteen years out of your roof,
that's a great's that's good. That's really really good because,
like we mentioned, the harsh the harshness of our of
the environment that we live in, hot, cold, expansion, contraction,
The asphalt granules are coming off, you know, drying up
(09:03):
the ceiling. So yeah, yep, there are not thirty years
there last thing about fifteen if if we're lucky, Yeah, if.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
You see granules in your gutter. That's that's a sign
there's an issue. Or if you don't have gutters, then
called beaver roofy and gutters too.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
By the way, absolutely that.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Problem all you're at it. So now, okay, you get
up there and you I guess it depends on the
roof of the situation summer. At what point do you go, well,
you maybe you really do need a roof replaced here.
That's case by case base.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It is kind of case by case. Like I said,
new old inspections. Whenever we get up there, and like
I mentioned, if the granules are just completely gone there's
nothing left on the roof, If there there are missing shingles, tabs,
you know that sort of thing, we're going to say, okay,
you know what, we need to get our new roof.
(09:58):
So then at that point we can kind of think,
all right, number one, what is the age of this roof?
Number two? Is there storm damage? So that's another thing
that our guys are going to be looking at whenever
they go up there. If there's storm damage, tail, when
anything along those lines, you know, we can kind of say, hey,
(10:18):
maybe we can you know, look into getting insurance to
pay for this, or if it's too old. Hey, it's
time for a new roof, and you just you know,
do that retail. But there are a couple of things
that we look at to say, hey, let's go to
the insurance rout. Hey, it's time to do retail.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
What's the what's the way to reach a summer at
beaver roof again, gutters?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
You call us at eight oh three nine nine to
one roof and that's eight oh three nine nine one
seven six six three.
Speaker 1 (10:51):

(12:45):
one O three point five FM and five sixty AM
company vo s. Good morning again and good to have
you with us this morning. My name is Gary David,
now joined by Jeremy Halliday, otherwise doing around these parts
as mister electric at jeby. How are you, buddy?
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Good morning Gary, doing good, good, terrific.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Good to see you. Good to see you too. We
were talking during the break there or we got a
little little stuff. We need you all to come out
and give us a quote on outdoor lighting. You guys
do a lot of outdoor lighting stuff, don't you.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
Yeah, we do.
Speaker 6 (13:11):
We do a lot of landscape lighting and we use
a very good product. So if that's something you're looking for. Uh,
our light fixtures are all brass, so you can get
them in different colors, but they're they're brass, so lasts
a lot longer than something that they just pick up,
you know, off the shelf.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Well, in the house we're in now, I don't know.
I guess at some point in time they had some
sort of we got it in the back, but in
the front, I don't know what happened there. Yeah, so
you know what, I got a couple of lights that
you know, we use like a Christmas time, you know.
But you know with those comes that extension core and
that's hideous and yeah yeah, uh, but I mean it's
(13:49):
not that big of a deal really anymore. I mean
because you you bury that that that low voltage wire
and you have to dig real deep in the ground.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
I mean, yeah, you have low voltage lighting out there,
then yeah you can. You can just put it, you know,
a few inches under the ground, keep it out of
the way, make sure you have good connectors on it.
A lot of times that's what's going bad on some
of these, either bulbs or connectors, depending on the type
of light fixture that's installed.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Sounds like you have a pretty good system there though.
You have them front and back.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
So that yeah, yeah, and somebody works, but the front whatever,
I don't know what happens here. But but but what
have you and what do I know about these things?
Speaker 6 (14:29):
So Holly, hopefully if you have good fixtures, you just
might need some bulbs and some.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Uh, all the front fixtures are gone, oh are they?
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Okay? I don't happen to them either, But we can
take care of that for you.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
But my point is I mean, the possibilities are pretty
much endless, aren't they.
Speaker 6 (14:45):
I mean, oh, yes, they've had so many different types,
and uh, we have a catalog we'll bring in. Uh,
so you can choose, you know, what you'd like to
install it. Man, you can put them in trees. They
got them. I mean they have them, yeah, man in
the tree.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Brackets that mount to anything and spotlight illuminate anything you
want to any kind of way, RGBW lighting, so you know,
with all the different colors.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
See see I'm all about that, but my wife hates it.
So I'm going to get overruled on that because for me,
I'm I'm like, hey, you know it's uh it's Saint
Patrick's Day, let's turn it green. You know, it's Christmas,
let's make it red whatever. Yeah, that would be me.
That is me.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
Yeah, that ain't her. Yeah, it's nice. Some people like it,
some people don't. But sometimes simple as best, you know,
just simple.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
Uh, just bring some lighting into the yard, make it
look nice and and h or for security purposes, if
you want to light up the window, underneath the windows
or whatever, you know, you do that.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
So and not only that, but inside or outside of
the home. You guys do a lot of installation of
smart stuff.
Speaker 6 (15:55):
Yes, we can do all kinds of smart devices, so
smart switches, smart receptacles.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (16:01):
And they're very user friendly now. I know in the
beginning people were a little shy of them after they
experienced some of the you know, the beginning stages of
the smart devices.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
But now they're they're very user friendly. Uh.
Speaker 6 (16:17):
You could put you could put like I said, you
could put switches, outlets, Uh, you know, flood lights, Uh,
video doorbells that are smart, connect to your phone.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (16:28):
There's there's a world of stuff out there you can do,
and we can do it for you.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Terrific And again it's guy's limit, right Yeah. Yeah, you
can make the whole home smart if you want to.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Yes, you can make the whole home smart if you
need to or you want to. Uh, there's ways of
doing that.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
One of the things you guys do, I mean, I think,
if I'm not mistaken, pretty much every time you go out,
you you gotta do an inspection on the are system
and the whole war of the business.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
Yeah, we call it a safety check. So what that
does you know?
Speaker 6 (17:06):
We're checking for safety items, smoke detectors, g fis where
they're required and needed.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Gay smoke defectors like got what was the second thing?
Speaker 6 (17:17):
Ground fault protection f Gfciyes, Arc fault protection.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Those are?
Speaker 6 (17:25):
Those are safety devices that detect any kind of loose
connection arcing in the system that can cause fires and
it'll shut shut that breaker down.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
And and the old style breakers they don't have that protection.
They have the you know, overload and then short circuit
UH protection, which is good. But the art fault adds
the art fault protection and then you can get dual
function where they have the arc fault, ground fault, over
current and short circuit.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
So uh.
Speaker 6 (17:56):
And that's what we try to do. Any house we
go into, we want to leave that system for them
when we got there, and that's what we're trying to
That's why we want to do that safety check.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Would that require basically replacing every breaker in your box
in the circuit.
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Panel most of them? Yes?
Speaker 6 (18:12):
Yeah, And so you know, then we get into the
way you want to invest your money. If you have
a thirty year old panel, maybe you want to just
go ahead and do the panel change and upgrade the
breakers or do the whole service, you know where you
change the outside meter can and the mast and if
you're having you know, you're having any kind of issues
in your home with flickering lights or a dark area
(18:34):
in your home that you want to install fixtures or.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
That's what we do, and we do. That's all we do.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
And I know we've talked about this before and it
bears bring it up again. Searche protectors. Now, ye know,
my idea of a search protector was a you know,
one of those little moul boxes that's a search protector
that you might plug your TV into before you plug
into the wall. Your definition of a search protector goes
way beyond that, though.
Speaker 6 (19:02):
Yeah, you know it's the same thing, it's a smaller version.
So we installed the whole home search protector. The one
we install has a lifetime product warranty, so it's a
very good one.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
So you just need one. Then, yeah, well there's.
Speaker 6 (19:15):
Three zones, right, we have out the exterior zone, the home,
the interior, and then the service. So we're going to
put it on the service that's going to protect you
from surges that most of the time when they come
in through the service, it's a big heavy surge and
can damage products instantly. You know, appliances, electronics.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
It got your whole everything.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
Yeah, at least a couple appliances or sprinkler system, garage doors,
things like that. And that's your main surge protector, but
that's not your only one. You still need to keep
search protection on electronics inside the home, and you need
to protect your.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Your items outside the home.
Speaker 6 (19:57):
Like pool pumps and condensing you and things like that.
So we put them outside on the service. And also
you want to keep surge strips on the inside. We
put in a point of use surge protectors all the time.
For electronics. You're putting a TV on the wall, we
can put a surge outlet.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
In Okaya, those are going to ask you. So it
could be built. It's built into the outlet itself. Yes, okay.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
Yeah, So because your home creates surges.
Speaker 6 (20:26):
You know, if you if you put a vacuum in
and start it up, that's creating a little surge.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
And you know, you know, Jeremy, we think about when
Jeremy Howdy mister electric is with us on the Home
Improvement Show this morning, we think about surges from you
got a thunderstorm, yeah, lightning. We think of that as
a search. But that's not the only thing I guess
that can can cause it surge to come into the home.
Speaker 4 (20:46):
Is that right, That's right. Yeah, there's other things that
cause it.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
You know, motor hard starts on motors, they start up,
create a surge through the system. When the power company
you know, is working on a line and the and
the power goes out. When it comes back on, there's
going to be a surge. There's all kinds of ways
that your home is creating its own little surges. So,
like I was saying, with the vacuum cleaner, you're starting
it up, there's a little surge goes through that system.
(21:12):
And those aren't normally the kind that damage something instantly,
but over time it wears out that that electronic computer, TV,
whatever it is that's on there.
Speaker 4 (21:26):
Do you can only handle so much?
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Do you find that appliances, whether it's you know, refrigerators, TVs, computers, whatever,
these days are more prone to be damaged by surges
or less prone. You'd think with technology that you know,
it would advance and these things will be more protected
just internally. But are they? Are they or is it
(21:49):
about the same as it's always been.
Speaker 6 (21:53):
I really don't know the answer. To that question. That's
something I could look into. My thought is that the
more electronics you have.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
The more susceptible it is to a search.
Speaker 6 (22:02):
So maybe refrigerator, you know, forty years ago just didn't
have as many electronics in it. So it's not that
it's yeah, you know, it's not that the refrigerators it's
more susceptible, not because it's a degraded product. It's just
that there's a more smarter product. It's got smaller charge,
more electronic parts in it, it talks to you.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Yeah, whatever, everything we like, right, is more convenient.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
You got a smart refrigerator, you got more problems?
Speaker 4 (22:29):
Yeah, you want well, you want to you want to
protect it.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
So if you're gonna don't just buy the one emotional
buy that's fun. If you're going to buy that smart refrigerator,
call mister Electric out to put you in a whole
home surge protector to protect that refrigerator. So make the
whole investment. Don't just buy the refrigerator because it's susceptible.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
What are we talking about ballpark here, Jeremy. We're talking about,
you know, putting in a whole home surge protection system
and what all does that involve.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
So we can come out and we can you know,
we have deal online all the time. We have I
think you know we have deals online all the time.
If you go to mister Electric dot com forward Slash
Columbia and go to the specials page, there's there's coupons,
there's deals on there. I think there's a first time
customer deal. So we can come out and give you
(23:17):
a quote and give you a customized quote, accurate quote
on all the surge protection that you want in your home.
The main panel, entertainment areas, garage doors.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Spring says, we're going to vary based on what owl's
in your home. Yeah, right, I think it could be
just a few things, could be a lot of things,
that's right.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
And or if your panel's forty years old and it's
a panel that we can't work on it's obsolete, you know,
it's an old Federal Pacific or something like that that
needs to be replaced, then then we're going to want
to give you a quote to replace that panel before
we put in that surge, or do it all at
the same time, because there's some things that we just
(23:55):
can't add to, you know.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
So okay, yeah, that makes yeah, y Federal Pacific. I
have remember that. When I go home today, I'll look
at my panel. If it yeah, Federal Pacific, I'll be afraid. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Well, you know, and when we come out, we can
do a safety check on your house, Gary, and see
what you got there. I can leave you a whole
you know what we call a priority checklist to make
your system as safe as possible, bring it up to
as close as we can without rewiring the place to
current code standards.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
And then it's up to you what you want to do.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
And those codes get updated pretty regularly. I think you've
told us.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
Well the codebook does the code book, okay? Right, So
the codebook.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
Spans a bunch of different type of electrical other than
just residential. So maybe something changes in residential, maybe not.
But every three years the codebook's updated. So the only
reason we even mentioned that is because sometimes we could
be confused on if my house was forty years old. Well,
when it was built, it passed code. That's wrong with
(25:00):
it now, you know, how's it? How's there a problem now?
And it's just that over forty years there's been a
few changes to the residential code because not because the
residential code changes.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
Every three year.
Speaker 6 (25:10):
But because the code book does is updated every three
years and and every so often there's a change in
there to the residential application.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
We got things in our homes right now, we didn't
dream about forty years ago. That's right, right crazy and yeah,

Speaker 1 (27:00):
Hey, we're back on the Home Improvement Show of the
Midlands and thanks for joining us this morning here on
one O three point five FM and five sixty am WBOC.
I don't think I mentioned it yet. Happy Mother's Day
weekend all you moms out there. Hey, it's Trey from
Mosquito Joe. You know mosquit of Joe, Mosquito Aunt, Mosquita Spider,
Mosquito Rodent Control. I mean the name is Mosquito Joe. Well,
(27:23):
I should say yeah, mosquito Joe, aunt Joe, what you
guys are doing it all these days?
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Man?
Speaker 8 (27:30):
We are we have we have become over the last
few years as a full service pest control company. We
don't do termites at this point, but we do do
home pest defense, We do rodent control, and then of
course we have our signature service where we take care
of your yard with the mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks. We
also have a treatment for fire ants. So whatever whatever
(27:52):
pest it is that's keeping you from enjoying your home
or your yard, we are here.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
To help it is. Now one stops with mosquito, that's right, cockroach, spider,
rodent Joe. Well, let's say yeah, and I guess I
don't know, Trey. Tell me the same environmental impacts that
lead to mosquito issues, do they have impacts on these
(28:18):
other pests as well?
Speaker 8 (28:21):
Somewhat? I mean, I think all pests thrive in a
really moist environment. Most pests like dark spaces, and so
you know, when you have dark you know, dark space
or shaded space with lots of moisture, it's a it's
(28:42):
definitely becomes a breeding ground for insects of all types.
I mean you you know, lay a piece of wood
down on the ground and let it sit there for
a week. You know, obviously it's very humid under that
piece of you know, of wood. H and then you
flip that over and man, you're seeing roaches run and
all kinds of bug ants and everything else. You created
(29:05):
a little environment there, that's that is, Uh, you know
that they like they like the shade. They like to
hide from the sun. They you know, they feel protected
and and it's very moist, doesn't dry out and stuff
like that, and so becomes highly organic and you know,
all kinds of things that bugs bugs like.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yeah, and then I guess when it gets really cold,
and when it's really cold in those few months of
the year that we have here, when it happens and
when I'm such a mosquito problem, that then those those
pests want to try to get inside and find some
warnful a lot of times don't they.
Speaker 8 (29:38):
Yeah, that is one of the most common times for
people to see bugs finding their way inside their house
is you know, when the weather turns and starts getting colder.
But in reality, they really like, you know, once they
figure out what is inside your house, Uh, they really
(29:58):
like to set up shop, and that the reason for
that is the same reason that you like to be
in there. It's climate controlled. Uh, there's plenty of water
and food around, and you know they're sheltered from you know,
from the elements, and so the all the reasons that
you like to live there is they like to live
there as well. And so it's it's very important that
(30:20):
you're treating your the outside of your home regularly so
that you never have to treat the inside of your
house to keep things like ants, silver fish, cockroaches, and
those sorts of pests out of your house.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
I guess it's it's kind of like the what the
mosquito control you do with the mosquito barrier spray you
put around the outside of the yard and out of
the yard to keep those mosquitoes from invading your yard.
Same thing here. It's a kind of a a bug
collar that you put around outside the home.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Right, that's that's correct. You know we're setting up a barrier.
We're also putting out a bait a little further away
from the house to draw insects away from the house.
But you know, these bait products that we use, they're
eco friendly and you know, they're really designed to go
after the queen. It's it's going to be a corn
(31:15):
based product that is going to feel, look and feel
like food, and we want them to take that back
to the nest uh and feed it to the queen.
And if you get the queen, you get the colony.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
And so.
Speaker 8 (31:28):
You know, that's that is one of our you know,
kind of specialties that we we will go after, you know,
things that it's not that that bait is not going
to have an effect immediately. It may take several days
for that to take effect, but by the time it does,
now you're now now you're getting every everyone that that
bug is shared it with, which is that's one of
(31:50):
the things that bugs do.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Now as far as mosquit is a concern, so we
you know, we've got to got to have some of
a wet couple of days and more on the way here.
But it's cool this weekend, which is good. But how's
this setting up for this summer mosquito season here, Trey.
We've we're we've been in a drought time to situation
from really most of the state here as we headed
into May. But we have had some warm days. Man.
Speaker 8 (32:14):
Oh yeah. In fact, last week, I was looking at
the ACU Weather mosquito forecast and they they said, at
the beginning of last week, we had reached extreme, which
is the highest level, which is the biggest, the most
mosquito pressure that we you know, generally see and so
we are we're there if you know, if you're not,
(32:37):
if you haven't been outside or not spending outside, you know,
time outside, you may not see it. But you know,
it's we've had enough rain to keep the mosquitoes breeding,
and you know it's for them, it's a heyday. We
you know, it feels a little cooler to us when
it's in seventy degrees, but that's that's twenty degrees warmer
than what they need to you know, to continue to
(33:01):
breed and thrive. And so you know, it feels a
little cooler to us on those days, but it is
not affecting them or they're anything they're doing at all.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Is it unusual train We're talking to Trey Powell from
Mosquita Joe. Is it unusual for us to be in
an extreme condition this early in the year.
Speaker 8 (33:21):
Nope, this is about the time that we get there
every year. I mean, it's you know, we've got lots
of days in the eighty you know, seventies and eighty degrees.
You know, we've had plenty of you know, thunderstorms come
through and dump water and fill things with water. So
there's you know, they have really everything that they need
to thrive. And so they're what happens when you enter
(33:43):
these conditions in April and May, it really they they
start activating in late February March, that's just building and
when we hit April, they're really moving fast until you know,
when you get to about May first, you kind of
hit the peak and it's going to stay at that
level really until September. It won't be until October until
(34:06):
that starts going down unless we really have some sort
of extreme change in weather or weather event. I mean,
you would have to have a long drought in this
area to slow those mosquitoes down before the month of October.
And so.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
We'll explain to us this relationship between water and mosquitoes.
Speaker 8 (34:30):
What's the deal there, Well, mosquitoes need they need water
to lay their eggs in because when their eggs hatched,
they become larva and they spend time in that larval
stage growing up and once they reach full size as
a larva. Then they are born through the surface of
(34:52):
the water as an adult mosquito. So they're born as
an adult, but they do spend anywhere from three or
four days as a larva too as much as a month,
and that depends on the conditions, as long as the conditions.
When the conditions are right like they are right now,
they're they're going through that larval stage very very fast.
(35:13):
When the conditions are not ideal, and you've got days
when it's down in the fifties or or below fifty
if you have water that doesn't that it's not highly organic,
meaning it's not really thirty. There's not a lot for
those larva to eat. It's not ideal conditions, and so
they they they will take them longer to go through
that larval stage. It's when you get the pressure really
(35:36):
high like it is. It means that those eggs are
hatching immediately and the larval stage is very quick, and
so they're they're kind of expanding exponentially.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
So you say they're born as adults, so they're born biting.
Speaker 8 (35:49):
Huh, Yeah, they exactly, yep. They When a female almost
cuido is born, she will be looking for a mate
that very first day. Interesting fact, they only mate one time,
and then that female mosquito will use what that male
(36:10):
gives her to reform eggs over and over again through
her lifetime. She's going to live about four to six
weeks max. And she is going to generate eggs over
and over again. And all she needs to do to
lay those eggs is she needs to bite. It's only
the females that bite, and she's biting to get the
protein from the blood in order so that she can
(36:32):
lay the eggs and produce more. And so it's you know,
the males will live seven to ten days, they don't
live very long, but the females will live four to
six weeks and they're laying up to three hundred eggs
every few days.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
Oh wows.
Speaker 8 (36:48):
Long as they have a protein meal, something to bite
a bird or a dog or a cat or you
something to bite to get that blood meal. So they
can find a spot to lay those eggs. They need
standing water, they need some green foliage. They eat the
nectar off of green foliage, and they also hide from
the sun. But that's really all they need.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Okay, Well, so this works. I know it works very
well because we've been using you guys for a long
time with this barrier spray. It's what every three weeks
should come out, lay it down. Yeah, for example, when
you got a lot of rainy weather, I mean, do
you have to put off putting this barrier spray down?
(37:30):
How much time do you need after you apply it,
before you know it's dry, before the rain moves in.
Speaker 8 (37:34):
Yeah, we have to work around the rain a little bit.
I means it needs thirty minutes to dry. I mean
if it goes down dry, it needs about you know,
if we're spraying it onto completely dry foliage, it takes
about thirty minutes to dry. We use a product that
makes it stick to whatever we treat, the spray it on,
and once it completely dries, it adheres to that surface
(37:58):
and you can't wash it off. And so if it's
going down wet, it may take a couple hours to dry.
And what you just don't need is you don't need
it to rain, you know, within thirty minutes or an
hour right after we've treated. So that's really the key,
and so we watch that very very closely and make
sure that the product is adhered well. But the spraying
(38:21):
part is really half of what we do. We spend
half the time on each yard looking for standing water
and finding where those mosquitoes are breeding. Because if we
can eliminate thousands of larvae before they're born, yet they're
not born, they can't bite, right, they don't bite in
a larval stage, you know. So we're going to try
and find where they're breeding and cut them off before
(38:42):
they're ever born and significantly reduce the population of mosquitoes
on that property.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
So have you never tried it before? A first treatment?
I guess it is still just thirty nine bucks, right,
that is correct, Kay, give it a shot and you'll
be happily a surprise at how well it works. Trust
to take it from me. I fo get a hold
of your mosquito.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
Hey, we're back on the Home Improvement Show of the
Midlands on one O three point five FM and five
sixty AMWVOC. So good of you to spend some time
with us this morning. We got one segment left before
we get up to nine o'clock and don't forget the
health and Wellness show follows this one, and let's spend
our time wisely and we will because Russ Marksey is
here from the Finishing Touch team. Good morning, sir, Good morning, Gary,
(40:36):
Good to be here. I got a brag on you man.
Your folks came out and we finally got the poolhouse
thing done. We remember we had some delays and you know,
I didn't think about it at the time, but you
first came out probably about two months ago and took
a look and said, okay, here's what we can do.
And I don't know if you recall, our additional plan was,
well my initial plan with I'm up, just go ahead
and pay it. I thought, well, why am I going
(40:57):
to do that. You know, work with you in the past,
I know what you can do. And I thought, well,
I'll tell you what. I'll pay the lower half. I
don't want to get up on that little overhang there
and try to get the upper half, because you know,
I ain't that young anymore.
Speaker 10 (41:09):
Yeah, that was a little sketchy side there.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Yeah, So you came out and took a look and
while we were talking then now y'all got to know
this wasn't Russ's idea, but we were talking about it.
I thought to myself, Okay, Gary, this is stupid. Why
would we pay the lower half and your guys paid
the upper half. Because when it's all done, we're gonna
go dak gummittt. We should have got you do the
whole thing. Yeah, there's a difference, there is.
Speaker 10 (41:33):
And you know also if you would have done let's
say you would have done the lower half, okay, and
let's say even a couple of days later, Gary, we
came back and did the upper half, Okay, you would
see that difference actually, okay, because where you had gone
up to and left off, that would have dried, and
then we would have painted the top portion and come
(41:54):
back down onto it, and you would see a little
bit of a transition line there, especially when you're looking
from the side of it. You you would see that transition, okay,
which is why you know, you always have to keep
your surface working area. You have to keep it wet
with the paint. Wet paint. Okay. Same thing when you're
cutting in a room, when you're doing the walls in
a room. Let's say, Uh, it's a big misconception where
(42:17):
folks will go in there and they'll cut in everything,
the whole ceiling, the corners, everything. Maybe they go eat
lunch or whatever and then come back and then they
roll the walls out. Okay, right, that's it wrong. You
see that, yes, you do. You'll see hat we call
it hat banding around the top and in the corners. Uh,
(42:37):
it's always it always makes for a much better job
to keep those surfaces wet when you're cutting in or
rolling to it. So absolutely, yeah, it really does. It's
a it's a it's a pretty big deal. Actually. You know,
they'll say that a lot of times you can get
away with that with flat paints versus eggshells and paints
with a sheen, but it's just not true. It just
(42:59):
all really depends, really depends on a lot on color,
how much color uh color rent is in that paint mix.
The lighter the colors, the better it does with that
specific situation. The darker the color, you will see a
lot of hat banding and uh, you know, differences and
in what you think is color, but it's actually textures
what you're seeing. You're seeing the difference between a brush
(43:21):
mark and a roller mark is what you're really.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
Seeing, right, Yes, okay, absolutely, yeah, that's what it is.
So I think your life got to be difficult, man,
because everywhere you go, you're looking at paint jobs all
day like going, oh ah, this is amazing that you
cannot enjoy just a wall, painted wall, Absolutely, I do. Man,
everywhere I look, don't look in this room, don't look
too close, right, No, but but I do.
Speaker 10 (43:46):
It's uh, it's just part for the course, right I
look at Uh, I notice everything where I go when
I'm looking at it. But but yeah, it's those little
nuances are what really makes for a for a good
paint job. And the same thing with the poolhouse carry
it's you would have seen that difference, that transition line
without a doubt.
Speaker 1 (44:01):
And then we had to put it off because well
it was pollen season, exactly something I would have thought
about and you know, quite honestly every year, and and
it when it arrived this year right with the band
and it sure did so then that you and I
were talking, so okay, we need to we need to
wait until after pollen season and something I wouldn't have
thought about. But but you guys do we do? Why
(44:23):
is that important?
Speaker 10 (44:24):
Well, you can't you can't paint on a on a
surface that has pollen all over, even if you cleaned
it off. It's all in the air. You can see
it moving in the air. When sunlight, you know, passes
through in a beam, you can see it clear as day,
and that stuff sticks to the pain. It doesn't allow
to adhere as well.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
Uh.
Speaker 10 (44:41):
And then it's it's actually food for for mold to
grow on. It's it's mold will feed off of that
pollen actually and create more mold. It's a little bit
of a misconception. Pollen doesn't actually uh create the mold itself,
but it's a food for the mold. Hence why it'll
stick to it a little little easier.
Speaker 1 (45:02):
You're just you know, well, paint over top of that,
and it's it's there.
Speaker 10 (45:05):
It's there, it is there. And we've seen a lot
of situations with that where it just doesn't it here
and it foils, you know, and it's it's look, it's
a it's a tricky situation. I run into this a
lot when when it comes to exteriors, Gary, where let's
say you have an older home and I hear it
(45:25):
all the time, where I'll go and I'll take a
look at the home and maybe the homeowner wasn't super
satisfied with the previous paint shob okay, and I'll take
a look at it. In a lot of cases that
that may be, you know, very well true. But what
is up happening is you'll see popping and peeling in
certain areas. Okay, now we'll go in and address all
those areas. We will scrape them, we'll sand them. We
(45:47):
go a step further, we spot prime all of that
with an exterior oil based primer. That is a must,
especially if it's down to the bare wood. You have
to do that. But what is up happening is you know,
and you can't. You know, he has a crystal ball
to to, you know, predict this. But it could be
a year, it could be three years, it could be
six months. For that matter, there may be an area
(46:08):
next to that surface that begins to pop and peel
that wasn't while we were there prepping and painting. Okay,
sure right, Yeah, it's just one of those. You know,
it's the nature of the beast. So you tend to
chase your tail a little bit with that. But here's
the thing I tried to explain this to homeowners. I
try to be as as transparent and upfront as possible
(46:30):
when it comes to this, because you have to. You
have to manage expectations here. Okay, we're not gonna we're
not gonna come in here and say with an older
home I'm referring to here and say, oh, we're gonna
just make it all brand new and you're never gonna
have a problem for ten years. That's just not true. Okay.
It all depends on how that house was painted from uh,
(46:50):
from the first time, all right. Without going through and
stripping all the paint off of the wood and starting fresh,
you just you just can't get that. So but what
we can do is do enough prep work with what
we do have there and what is wrong correcting that
to give you the longevity and the most bang for
your buck that you can get for it. Okay, but
(47:11):
it is, it's it's it's so so common. We see
this all the time where you're scraping and you've got
all this peeled areas and you fix it two years later,
you know, twelve inches next to it, it's starting to
pop and peel, But it wasn't at that time two
years prior when we were painting it, you know. And
it's just one of those things, older homes. It's very
very common, very frustrating, it is, it is.
Speaker 1 (47:33):
And yeah, interesting, I was talking to you guys when
they were out this past week, and they just they
echoed the fact that. Matter of fact, one of the
fellows said, you know what, the painting is the easy part,
right right, Oh yeah, the preparation, because I know when
they came out initially they said, well we need to
go ahead and power wash. Of course we'd actually powerwashed
it about two months ago, but that was you know,
(47:53):
before pollen season hit, right, And so they came out
and spent a day power washing. But then you know,
calking all the areas and again this this is this
is not like this is a pool house out in
the backyard. Okay, but uh, I mean your guys treated
like you got to treat it the same.
Speaker 10 (48:12):
You gotta everything treat is treated the same. It doesn't
matter for painting a pool house or an outhouse for
that matter. Carry right, it doesn't matter. We and we
and we were you know, we we do everything from
uh you know, a poolhouse, a bathroom, hall, bathroom too.
We were painting. We're in the middle of painting four
different schools, right, say you're a retired school Yeah, yes, sir,
(48:33):
we're doing four different schools right now over the summer.
So yeah, we're we're extremely diversified when it comes to
what we'll actually paint.
Speaker 1 (48:41):
And aside from that, let's talk about the cabinet special. Sure, yes,
still running that special, okay, and that's fifteen fifteen percent
off carry Okay, so let's just start with this. You're
already saving thousand, ten yeah, but tens of thousands, tens
of absolutely, yeah, you really are, because if you wanted
(49:03):
to replace cabinets, I mean low end, low end cabinet replacement, yeah,
you can go up to fifty sixty, seventy very easily.
Speaker 10 (49:14):
I mean, now, I believe there are some out there
for I believe under twenty. But you're really getting what
you pay for on that end of it. Yeah, you're
you know, you're gonna go get a much cheaper end cabinet,
the you know, press board, the veneer is gonna pop
that sort of thing. So yeah, so yeah, twenty r
plus for sure.
Speaker 1 (49:32):
Okay. So already what you do, it's a fraction, is
saving tons of money.
Speaker 10 (49:38):
It's a fraction.
Speaker 1 (49:39):
Yeah, now you've cut fifteen percent off that. What are
you crazy?
Speaker 10 (49:44):
We love doing it that, you know. Cabinets are one
of the most satisfying jobs that we can do for
a homeowner. They are because it just it just transforms
their kitchen or bathroom. You know, vanities, built ins next
to fireplaces, right, all these you know, all these things
fall under that, all right, and it just makes such
a difference. It's so much bang for your buck. And
(50:07):
you know, and I'll tell you generally, cabinets are the
typical cabinet. I mean, unless you have, you know, a huge,
huge kitchen with forty plus doors. Okay, the average pricing
to paint your kitchen cabinets, all right is anywhere's from
about fifteen hundred dollars Gary to about four thousand dollars.
That's where it's at. Honestly, that is the most average
(50:30):
price range for a kitchen cabinet. Trains where it's at,
you know, and if you call from this obviously get
fifteen percent off of that. So it's a big savings
it is. And it's the sky's a limit. You can
change your colors, you can do two tones, you can
do all sorts of really really neat stuff. Beef the
cabinets up with trimwork. Now that's that wouldn't be us.
That's another cabinet guy that I work with exclusively with that.
(50:52):
But this guy's a limit. You can you can really
transform it and do whatever you'd like to do.
Speaker 1 (50:58):
And is the process that makes the difference, because now
obviously the shells the cabinet you got to pay those
on site, but you do something unique and different with
the cabinet doors themselves, and really, well, you know, makes
makes all the difference in the world.
Speaker 10 (51:14):
Yeah, I mean, I would you know, it's not I
don't know if unique is necessary necessarily the term, but
we go, we go the extra miles. What we do
we we take every single precautionary measure, every step of
prep work that is possible. We do all that all
the way from removing the doors, we number them. All
the doors get put back in the exact same spots
(51:36):
that they came out of, because if not, I mean,
that's a mess. And there's a lot of adjustments to
these cabinets, all sorts of stuff. But we take them
back to the shop and you know, you have all
sorts of different cabinets. You have stained ones, painted ones,
so it depends on what they are. But we decrease them,
number one. That's the first thing we do, right, because
you've got years of cooking and grease and spatter and whatnot,
(51:58):
So we decrease everything we thoroughly, thoroughly sand them down
with mechanical sanders, palm sanders. We send them down. Then
we go step further and we bondo any sort of
just like you do on your walls, right, you pull
up your walls with drywall compound to fix all the imperfections.
We do the same thing on cabinets, but we use bondo.
We use a specific bondo mix that we use for
(52:19):
that that gets sanded. We spot prime those areas a
lot of times. We'll have to go through and hit
a couple other ears. Now that you see it, and
then it gets two full coats of oil based enamel
over the top of it, sanding between the coats of that.
Then we let a cure for about seventy two hours
and we reinstall and they look they just look beautiful.
(52:40):
They look almost like they're dipped in plastic or something.
They look really nice.
Speaker 1 (52:44):
So this is why the time we try to do
it on our own it didn't turn out so well.
Speaker 10 (52:48):
Most likely. Yeah, and it's all in a controlled environment, right,
So we're in a spray booth, we have a dry area.
We're not in a garage with plastic tape down and
things like that.
Speaker 1 (53:00):
Going to tell you the time we thought we did
it under the deck. Oh my gosh, yeah, iact like
you never heard that. Fifteen percent off already on a
tremendous saving right now. Great's on those on those cabinety finishings.
