If anyone is willing to help on saturday get some free lunch beer, text or call me @ 388-4792. there will be all the equiptment we need and 5 other carpenters here.

If you have any questions and/or concerns regarding plugging your sewer, battery backup's on your sump pumps, or even the installation of a new sump pump, give us a call. We have about 25 sump pumps in our shop and plan on pickup about about 25-30 more today.

We have installed several sump's over this past week, and have several more in stock to continue installing!

I'll give u a call, lol...

Sorry, but I just can't feel bad for people in this... it happens every year... here's an idea, don't wanna get flooded, don't live where it does, especially low ground...

I dont think anyone is asking you to feel bad.

I may have to get the Jetski's fired up. I have never been up and down the streets of Fargo with one before.
