scheduling hell in texas roofing crews

we're down here in texas and i'm paying $150k a year to keep three crews scheduled but half the time they're twiddling thumbs waiting on permits or chasing hail damage leads that ghost. it's a crap-show trying to juggle flat roofs and shingle jobs without overlapping. fml, how do you even plan around these insurance delays?

goddamn permitting offices are the worst, had a whole week lost last month.

don't let your guys sign off on anything without double-checking the storm chaser reports first.

screw the schedulers, just fire the lazy ones and hire guys who show up on time.

texas roofing is a joke with these delays, everyone's pissed.

how do you handle overlapping jobs without the crews killing each other?

hire a dedicated scheduler, worth the $60k salary.

i run a tight ship with daily huddles before jobs start.

insurance delays are killing small ops like mine.

screw the big boys, they're buying up all the good leads.

had to let go of two guys last week for showing up late too often.

fired a whole crew after they botched a metal roof install.

shingling in texas heat is brutal, no wonder turnover's high.

scheduling software is overrated, just use google calendar.

my crews hate the heat delays, always rescheduling.

insurance is the real villain here, dragging everything out.
