Got ya. heheheheh
Today I went and signed on the storage unit until I return here for medical help next summer. That gives me some breathing room.
Once that was done I stopped by the local dealer for some Dicor, Butyl tape, hoses for the propane regulator, etc. It's a mom and pop shop and the nice lady always remembers me.
As the son was rounding things up I asked just for chits and giggles how much resealing the roof would cost. He said lets see, 25 ft, two vents, etc, etc. $100 to clean, treat, scrape the old sealant and replace, not just a layer of Dicor. Okay, deal.
While you are up there, I said. I don't want the roof A/C, I'd rather have a vent. Would you be willing to trade the A/C for R&R plus the vent? He grabbed a FF fan and said I'll put one of these in and we are even. Deal
Last thing I said is I can't pull the tires and wheels to repack my bearings, how much? $100 per axle to take them down, check brakes, etc. Clean it all up, new seals, repack bearings. Deal.
So for $300 I'm getting the roof resealed better than I would have, the axles gone through and the A/C replaced by a FF fan.
It was a good day and I don't have to worry about falling off the roof or lifting so much I take my back out all together.
