  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, time of year.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Hey, you had a I know you had a chance
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: last week to spend some time up in up in
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: the Northwoods up there in Canada.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: E beautiful part of the North America. Great area up there.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: And uh one of the things I know is they
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: tend to get obviously because they're further north. It cools
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: down a little bit earlier. And I thought I saw
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a possible report of later this week, a chance for
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: snow and parts of parts of Ontario. And we're not
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: even to fall yet meteorologically, but it has been cool,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: hasn't it?
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Andrew, it was, and we had some nice days. But
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: the trees were already turning color up there, Oh were they?
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Really it was, but it started. It wasn't when we
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: first got there. But by the last day nice the
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: trees were already starting to turn. We were getting down
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: into the upper forties at night. So it's coming, Yes,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: it is. Listen, it is, by all accounts, the best
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: time of year for all, for all stay at home
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: mothers or stay at home fathers. Kids are back in school.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's noticeablaly quiet at the at the Larsen Compound
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: this morning.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, kids are back at school. Oh if there is
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: somebody who stays with them, all right, they've got some
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: more free time to get stuff done or binge watch Netflix.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know. The trees will be turning colors. We've
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: got badger football started, Packers are starting this weekend. Fantasy
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: football leagues have been done, hunting season. Can listen. It's
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: a great time of year. But we all know what
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: comes at the end of this, you know what, like
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: hopefully it's like it has been the past few years,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: and it comes like in December like it has been. Right,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: you've been getting some amazing falls, which which is great.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: But here's what I know. This happens every single year,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: and it's happened for the last sixteen year, while fifteen years.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I hope it doesn't happen on the sixteenth year, but
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: I know it will when we get calls in November,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: mid November, end of November. I need a new roof
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: and I need it done before winter. I need new
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: gutters and I need it done before winter. Look, we
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: do our best to accommodate, but fall is usually the
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: busiest time of year just because us naturally people procrastinate.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: I am the same exact way. You know, when you
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: hold up a contractor license, you have to do continuing
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: education and you've got to get fourteen credits of continuing
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: education done every single two years. Every two years. Do
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: you know, and I get those credits done, seum.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess during the off season, Andrew.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: When they tell me I have thirty days to get done, Okay,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: I've had two years. I've had two years, and now
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: I'm now I'm just getting her all done, right thirty
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: days or you're all, yes, this is what people do
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: with their their roofs and gutters. We procrastinate, even though
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: we could have called in April or Mark. So here's
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: the deal. If you're thinking, hey, you know last winter,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: I've heard this many times. Yeah, we saw a little
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: spot on the ceiling, but then I went away so
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: we didn't worry about it. That can be one of
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: a few different things. That could be a roof problem.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: That could be a condensation problem, that can be an
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: air ceiling and ventilation problem. It will come back. Have
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: us come take a look, do a roof inspection. We
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: do a full roof inspection. I can't tell you tell
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: you how many times we get business because the customer goes, well,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: you're the third person and you're the only person that
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: actually got on the roof and inspected the roof. Well,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: how the heck can you tell somebody they need a
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: new roof if you don't get on the roof and
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: take a look at it. Not only do we get
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: on the roof and take a look at it, we
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: take a video. We do photos so you can see
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: exactly what we're seeing. If we just did what most
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: conk directors do. If somebody calls for a roofing estimate,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: they get an eagle view which is just a satellite
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: measure of the roof, and they come over and go
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: a right, well, here's your estimate. Well what if they
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: don't need a new roof, what if they just need
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: a restore. My point is, don't wait till the last minute.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: If you think roof is almost there, or you possibly
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: thought you may have had a leak last winter but
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: it magically disappeared. Most roofs don't just heal themselves. It
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: just it might have been an ice and snow thing
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: that only rears its head in the winter. Have us
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: come out do an inspection. We'll tell you what you need.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Possibly you just possibly you've got a great roof. Everything's
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: going well, but you want to guarantee to prolong the
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: life of it, and we can put gonano on it.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: I haven't talked about gonano in a while now. The
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: stuff is amazing. That is a coating that goes on
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the roofs. We're basically exclusive in the state of Wisconsin.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: You got to get it from Larsen or LARSENKINI Home Services.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: We guarantee the extension of your life because it actually
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: bonds your roof at a molecular level, making it a
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: more elastic, so it's going to make it more resistant
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: to hail. Be it brings back some color and life
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: to it, kind of takes away some fading, and it
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: makes it more waterproof. Maybe you need a new roof,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: maybe you don't. Also, the leaves will be falling if
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: you want to of Like right now, I mean, we're
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: we've been at a really good pace all year long.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: You sign up for a gutter shutter install today, we
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: can possibly get it done next week or the week after.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: We've been Yeah, we've here's what we've learned. Yeah, when
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: you've got great stuff, people don't want to wait a
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: long time. No, so we make sure that we have
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: the technicians to get the job done so people aren't
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: waiting three four or five six weeks. And we've been
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: there in the past. We've been that far out and
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: we've been at a basically a two ish week a
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: twoish week backlog all year which is which is perfect.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: You sign up today, end of next week or beginning
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: of the week after, we can get it in. So
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: now we get you all excited for something. We don't
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: want to make you wait, you know, a month and
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: a half that stings, so we can still get it
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: done now end of September, mid October. I don't know
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: where we'll be at because that's I mean, that's when
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: we get really busy. Leaves turn color, start falling, and
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: people go, oh, man, I don't want to get up there.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: So all I'm saying is, if you're thinking about it,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: estimates are free. Yes, of course, when we come over,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: we want to gain your business. But if it's something
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: that you don't want to do right now, you want
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: to do later whatever, at least you know you know
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: what it would cost to get your house fixed.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: One of the great things to Andrew about. And as
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: we talk with Andrew Larsenom Flarstom Services, one of the
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: great things too in working with you, you mentioned having
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: folks come out for that, have that assessment. Have you
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: take a look at the roof. As you mentioned, you've
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: got options at Larstom Services, So you're not just going
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: in there saying automatically you just need a new roof.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Let's rip this thing off, let's start over. You mentioned
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: go nano, talk about some of the other products, some
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: of the other techniques, whether it's through your roof for
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: store and other things. It's not a one size fits all.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: It's it's literally customized to what you actually need if
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: you need anything. And I know one of the great
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: things about Larstom services is if you don't need something,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: you're gonna tell folks your roof looks great, everything's fine,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: call us when you need something and uh and and
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: move on from there. I mean, it's it's literally like, hey,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: you guys have the options, which means you don't have
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: to force something unneeded on somebody that that they may
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: not they may not need because you guys have a
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: whole toolkit of different things for different applications.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So that's again, I talk about that all the time.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: That's what we've really tried to do. So many homeowners
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: call and say, yeah, I think I need a new roof,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: and then someone comes out and says, yeah, you need
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: a new roof. Here you go, But you didn't get
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: on the roof and take a look. Yeah, so you
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: don't really know. Yeah, Or I have a roof leak,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: I need a new roof. Well do you really need
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: a new roof or you just need us to fix
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: the leak. Because all we're trying to do is is
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: is help the homeowner get what they actually need and not.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Sometimes anybody listening don't take offense to this, but sometimes
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: homeowners don't know everything. We listen to the Google machine. Well,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: you got a leak in your roof. Oh you need
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: a new roof. All my if it's twelve years old,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: it's time for a new roof. That's not necessarily true.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: A lot of contractors will tell you because it's easy,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: and a lot of estimators or sales reps don't want
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: to get on the roof. It's a requirement for us.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: You have to get on the roof. We have to
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: do an inspection so the homeowner knows exactly what's going on.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Sometimes homeowners think, when I don't need new gutters, My
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: gutters are perfectly fine. But when we get up and
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: we do the inspection and we use our tools and
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: we show what's really going on, the gutters are hung
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: completely wrong. The corners are all leaking, like there's nothing
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: we can do with that. But we're not going to
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: just say yes, you do, you have to have it.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: So and again we get up there and look, there's
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: no leak. The shingles look like they're in great shape.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: They're twelve years old. This is a perfect time for
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: a go nano application because once we apply that go nano,
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: we guarantee in writing you are not going to need
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: a new roof for at least five years due to
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: granular loss or shingle curling. We are going to stop
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: the aging of those shingles in their tracks. So if
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: you're thinking you need a new roof, we get up,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: we inspect it and go ah, I mean, it really
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: looks great even though it is fourteen years old. We
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: can go nano it. And now we're going to guarantee
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: you you ain't and you're not gonna I almost said eight,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: getting a little.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Passionate, I're going to send you to school.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: I've gotta go back. We guarantee you're not going to
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: need a new roof till at least it's nineteen years old.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's peace of mind for people. So anyway,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: have us come out, don't wait till the last minute.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: It's an amazing time to do that. And as we
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: talk with Andrew Lars from Large Stome Services, whether I'm
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: looking at gonano and of course getting extra extending the
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: life of your roof, we talk to about gutter shutter.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: This time a year of course the leaves are still
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: firmly on the trees. As they come off the trees,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: the phones really start popping. And of course they're always
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: going on that Larstome Services. They're there for you a
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: year round. But it is a great time right now
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: to beat that fall rush to get in for the
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: gutter shutters, get those installed. Of course, have your roof
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: inspected as well from the folks of Larstom Services. It's
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: really easy to do. All you gotta do is pick
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: up phone, do like I did six oh eight five
