CAN YOU TOP THIS?

Welcome to the latest edition of our popular “Can You Top This?” column, featuring the newest entry in the Service Industry News “Horror File. ”

This issue’s entry comes to us from Casey Handy of Paragon Pools in Jacksonville, Florida.

“Hurricane Irma was not nice to some of our customers here in Jacksonville, FL”, writes Casey.

“We just finished installing a glass bead finish in this pool less than a year ago.

“After the storm waters receded, we were able to clean the pool back up to like new condition.

“And surprisingly enough we did not find any marine life in the pool!”

At Service Industry News, we would rather go behind the scenes and take a closer look at the type of stuff our readers encounter everyday — cracked tiles, spaghetti plumbing, rats in heaters, cars in the pool, snakes in the plumbing, and more!

When you are out in the field and you see something that doesn’t look right, send us an email along with a picture and a brief description: Send your photo to serviceindustrynewscd@yahoo.com. Please write: Attention Horror File, in the subject line and thank you for remembering us when you are out there.
