The guy I used is named Childress.

He is a Yamaha certified mechanic, top notch, really, and does service
and winterizing, too.

His phone number is 13015354352. That's his cell. Usually his inbox is
full, but he calls back via caller ID.

He travels in a step van and has everything with him. Last year, I paid
$8 a foot for wrapping, $7.50 the year before. He does his work in your
driveway. But I don't know if he will drive to Virginia.

I thought he did a better wrapping job than Tri-State, and I'm a fan of
Tri-State. I believe they are charging $14 a foot these days.

Good luck.


Childress will be here this week, with his 55gal drum so he can do the service
in my driveway.



What's he getting for shrinkwrap this year? About the same?


He's going to do the winterization, oil, lower service and shrink wrap for $350.
Sounds fair to me, and I'll be here to watch him do it.
