What a great podcast on Windows, Doors and Garage Doors, we get right into what's the norm, how to install and the clients.

We have Joe Fernandes from @Joerf1 as our guest, with decades of experience we get ritght into everything to do with these openings in your home.

Why most go one style over another, what are the good, bad and ugly truths about installing windows.  Why clients always go cheap and learn thigns the hard way.

Are the upgrades worth it?

And so much more as Manny and Carlito and Joe have a blast while educating.

Manny and Carlito have Omid @thetileguy.gta and Flo @procustompainting both of them being 24 years old as guests on today's show.  A couple of 47 year olds vs a couple of 24 year old trades.  

What could go wrong?

We get right into it, no BS here and you will be surprised what Omid and Flo have to say about their generation.  Sorry Eddy, you made your own bed.

We might have to do a follow up to this show and topic, after 74 mins we still had more to discuss.

Manny and Carlito are back in the saddle without Mikey.  The Construction Life podcast will go on as Manny and Carlito have a lot to share since the last time these two contractors have been recorded.  Its a funfilled show talking a little bit of everything to do with construction.

Hold on to your butts cause we don't hold back and with Carlito on his own proffesionally speaking, there doesn't seem to be a filter so you know this talk will get good.

Great to be back and both of us are commited to producing some great shows and stir up that construction talk all over again.
