FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am constantly working on pricing. I have found that trying to get work by having the lowest bid is not productive. I do quality work that both customers and myself are proud of. Cost is and should be a factor but you get what you pay for in most cases.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically the customer knows exactly what they want and are educated about what they want done and post accordingly. Its not always necessary to meet them before we agree on price. About a third of the time we have agreed without ever meeting until Im on site and working. Im pretty confident when I bid any work and wont bid things I am not sure I can complete. I have many years of experience getting things done and dealing with people. Im honest and trustworthy and that pretty much says it all.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
At a very early age I became interested in all things mechanical and just wanted to figure out how everything works and then why things didn't. After high school I studied Industrial Nh3 Refrigeration and power technology, Drafting, and earned my Operating engineers license with the city of Omaha while working as a engine room mechanic for IBP and Tyson foods. After several years I hired on as a millwright / welder with Wiese Mechanical and have been doing this type of work for commercial, industrial, and residential customers for nearly 40 years.
