The law that has been on again off again over the past two to three years is here and it’s real. According to a local STL rehabber blog that I read occasionaly, the EPA is coming out big in the way of fines. 

There is no doubt that many contractors and property owners are going to simply ignore this new law (it hasn’t been publicized much), but it seems that the feds have thought ahead about that. They have instituted a fine system which can charge violators up to $37,500 a day for not following the rules. Most small-time operators would probably not see such large fines, but the EPA is certainly taking a punitive approach to this new rule.

What have you done to prep for this moment? Do you use in-house painters and or contracted third parties to paint your apartments? This will no doubt be a burden for all involved.

In brief of our policy is as follows:

1. Employees are paid for one-hour minimum – if they physically leave their home to complete a call

2. They are paid at time and a half

3. They are paid mileage from their legal residence

I am curious about other nuances our there; please drop us a comment as the community is interested.

And, I do hope that you have an amazing and over the top weekend.

This video demonstrates how to fix your garbage disposal.

Office teams, how many times have you tried to describe that little button on the bottom of the disposal or that cock-eyed wrench you use to get the motor going again after junior put his hot-wheel down the drain. Why not send this over instead?
