When a contractor visits your house, you hope the work will be done efficiently, cost the least possible, and be totally effective. Mechanical Extremes Harold Wilkes knows this, and has researched how to accomplish the most for the customer and side step speed bumps. A major secret is the truck itself.
When a Mechanical Extreme tech takes to the road, he is driving a mobile warehouse. Onboard is more than what’s needed. Harold says “we strive to account for the unforeseen.”
Take the story of the customer who wanted improved cooling in part of the house. That required rerouting ducts, which could be one with existing materials. Simple? It looked that way until the tech found that two ducts were a quarter-inch part apart. When it comes to an airtight fit, a quarter-inch might as well be a mile. Installing new ducts would delay the fix and add to the cost. That’s when the secret of a well-stocked warehouse on wheels saved the day. Inside the truck was a duct stretcher. No kidding! The tech used it to pull the two ducts together so he could insert a fastener to hold them in place.
Also on board in a Mechanical Extremes truck are tools for customization. Harold says that includes sheet metal, and the means to shape it in every imaginable way. How? One tool can create a perfect circle. Shears that are powered by a drill will cut straight through metal.
Coming prepared is a science in itself–and part of the Mechanical Extremes difference. “Our goal is to exceed customer expectations.”
