A lot of people ask us,
"Is training really required?". In our
opinion the answer is a resounding YES.
You are fortunate in
today's curb equipment market, that training is available.
A lot of the "old contractors" in this business
had to learn the hard way, by TRIAL AND ERROR. Well
as we all know, that errors cost money and that is no way
to start out a new business.
We at P.D.C.S. understand
that! We offer comprehensive training in all aspects of
this exciting business. Be assured that with over 2 decades
of successful installation of custom landscape edging in
all conceivable conditions that we can offer you
"piece of mind" when it comes to learning this
business. We have one of the largest networks of
installers utilizing our equipment from coast to coast,
this experience is at your disposal.
Training for your future
installation crew, by our every-day,
working installation crew.
Our classes run on a
regular basis. The cost of these classes are covered
in the purchase of turnkey package from us.
You make it down to sunny Orlando, and we will take it
from there.
Here is what to expect when
you arrive. Classes usually start between 7:30am-8:00am.
We like to start early in order to maximize the time spent
with you while you are here.
The following information
is key to running a successful business. Having an
installation crew ourselves for the past 17 years gives us first hand knowledge
that these techniques work. And they can work for
you.
