We’re all just a few weeks away from the start of the “busy season”….that magical period of time that runs roughly from April through August, where it seems like there aren’t enough hours in the day to do all the work that needs to be done.  Grinding, polishing, removing, installing, one job flowing into the next. 

Well, now is the time to make sure you’re ready to go.  We get calls all the time from guys that need a machine for a job that starts “yesterday”.  Sometimes, of course, that’s unavoidable.  There are always going to be things that pop up, and maybe catch all of us with our guard down.  But, there are also often opportunities to avoid finding yourself in that last minute pinch.

If at the end of last year, you swore to yourself you were done renting that old, beat up walk-behind scraper for $x a day, and were finally gonna buy one next year, do it.  Don’t wait until you blow more money renting the same old machine for the first couple of jobs this year before you get fired up enough again to remember why you wanted to buy in the first place.

Also, right now, we’ve still got show special pricing from the trade shows we just did in Vegas.  Both Surfaces and World of Concrete were earlier this month, and the show specials are available all month, whether you made the trip or not.

And, lastly, there’s the used equipment market.  As you may have read in previous blog entries, the demand for used scrapers and grinders doesn’t come close to matching the supply,  So, if you’re thinking about a used unit for yourself this year, contact us now and let us know what you need so we can let you know when we have something available that meets your needs

Addressing your equipment needs now can help you enjoy an even better (and maybe less stressful) busy season!

We’ve made the decision to put together an inventory of factory refurbished planetary grinders, and floor scrapers.  This section of our website will be up soon.

All refurbished equipment sold will come with a full, 1-year warranty, just like a new machine.  They’ll also come with the same tooling packages as new machines, and all tooling included will be brand new.

This inventory will come from pools of demo equipment, trade-ins, and warranty repaired equipment.  Again, each used unit will be factory recertified, and come with the same warranty as our brand new machines.

If you’d like to receive updates when we get equipment in stock, just enter your E-mail address in the form above, on the right side of the page.  We’ll send out monthly lists of available inventory.  On the other hand, if you’re looking for something now, or if you’d like us to notify you individually as soon as a refurbished unit is in stock, fill out our contact form, and include what you’re looking for in the notes.

We’ve gotten many questions about used equipment over the years, and are very proud to announce this new program for our clients.

Here’s to a great 2009!
