[speaker001:] you go ahead and tell me about your last home repair
[speaker002:] well let's see my last home repair I put an office in my garage I uh took down one of my uh uh two car garage doors and I uh I made an office out of it and uh the funny thing was um it I I didn't think I needed a permit you know because I wasn't yeah I wasn't changing the the looks of the of the outside
[speaker001:] a building permit yeah um-hum
[speaker002:] and my neighbor called the uh city on me yeah he turned me in and I I was halfway done with the office
[speaker001:] oh he turned you in huh huh
[speaker002:] and uh so oh well what they did was I I called I'm a contractor myself and I'm I'm a roof contractor so
[speaker001:] did they fine you or what uh okay um-hum
[speaker002:] uh I went down and got some permits from some uh roof work that we were doing and I uh I talked to them about my you know my garage and uh so they said well you need to get a permit for this and that and you know electrical and all that kind of stuff so they here's the funny thing they said they uh
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] they wouldn't give me the permit because they needed a uh pre inspection okay so they came to do the pre inspection and they they didn't pass it because I didn't have a permit on site
[speaker001:] yeah uh-huh oh you're kidding  so how'd you finally get a permit
[speaker002:] oh we're I'm still in my office and they I still don't have one and no huh
[speaker001:] you're kidding did you finish it did you finish it
[speaker002:] uh yeah yeah
[speaker001:] and without a permit yeah that that that is funny
[speaker002:] so it's it's quite comical in fact um I'm starting in my I I'm actually not starting my bathroom but I couldn't help but start at my bathrooms I uh taking a shower one day I I uh
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] put my hand on the on one of the tile walls to support myself and put my hand right through
[speaker001:] huh you've got to get a permit even to like remodel a bathroom
[speaker002:] well um yeah I think I yeah yeah here in in Plano that's uh yeah
[speaker001:] is that right jimminy Christmas
[speaker002:] it's pretty strange
[speaker001:] hum I didn't realize they were that stringent I uh have done a little bit of remodeling on my house I'm I'm an accountant but I sure enjoy um you know messed around and doing some things and I finished a couple rooms in the basement and I built a real nice storage shed on a concrete foundation and and uh I've never got a building permit yeah in fact I
[speaker002:] uh-huh is that right well here yeah even even uh even just putting uh little uh uh patio outside you have to have a permit
[speaker001:] I know  huh
[speaker002:] yeah it's it's pretty strange
[speaker001:] I'm thinking about building a room on my house and I you know I haven't thought twice about getting a permit
[speaker002:] yeah yeah you have uh I I think things you know are are different from city to city or from state to state but
[speaker001:] um-hum well I'm not sure I think I'm supposed to have one I just never have gotten one
[speaker002:] oh
[speaker001:] maybe my neighbor'll turn me in too
[speaker002:] yeah well I I think my neighbor was a little bit uh put out because he came over to you know he he asked to to help me and he's pretty busy guy I thought anyway and I said well I've I've got my guys from work they're gonna to come over and do most of the work you know I said I appreciate your your asking but
[speaker001:] uh-huh um-hum
[speaker002:] it was funny because right the just the day after he called
[speaker001:] is that right huh
[speaker002:] yeah you know I I guess I should have let him come over and
[speaker001:] I
[speaker002:] and did my garage I mean I wouldn't have mind but I you know I thought he was he was pretty busy and
[speaker001:] uh-huh yeah
[speaker002:] wouldn't have time to do it but that's how things are
[speaker001:] well that's interesting well I know you don't have any good horror stories about home repair then because you probably uh don't have any problem if you're in the profession
[speaker002:] no actually um
[speaker001:] um-hum do you install metal roofs
[speaker002:] we do um yeah well we we don't install we we do mostly repairs we do some uh reroofing with built up roofs
[speaker001:] or or just the asphalt type shingle
[speaker002:] and uh but we do repair uh metal roofs
[speaker001:] uh-huh but but like if you were doing a residential if somebody a residential person uh house wanted you to come in and reroof their house but you do that kind of stuff uh-huh
[speaker002:] yeah uh-huh we do that yeah uh we do work we do mostly commercial stuff uh and we do work on a lot of metal roofs but we we don't install them we just uh uh repair them
[speaker001:] uh what's your opinion about those I'm my my home's gonna need to be either reshingled or reroofed in the near future we don't have a lot of heavy snow right here in Twin Falls
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] but uh I was looking towards getting a whole aluminum you know or metal or whatever is
[speaker002:] uh I'd be real careful extreme temperature changes uh affect the metal roofs
[speaker001:] in in what way
[speaker002:] it it expands and retracts and um just
[speaker001:] hum more so than the asphalt shingles
[speaker002:] yeah
