Yea, dumpster will be supplied by the customer. I estimated about 300 gal of slurry will be generated. I plan to use 2 or 3 55gal drums to dump the slurry, wait for it to setle down and reuse some of that water to minimize the volume, add gel max to what's left and dispose to dumpster. I added 12 man hrs extra and $250 for gel max (it cost $180 for 35 lbs + s&h). Is there anything else I missed?

On the 8000 sq ft job I was on it took 5 gallons of gel-max. You might buy a little more than that. We had about 5 man hrs involved in shoveling into small 2 yd dumpsters, Your time would be a few more if you carried trash cans full to the outside and dumped it. May add another 5 hrs. The stuff is really heavy put the cans on a cart. I think the gel-max is around 300.00 per 5 gallons. Oh don't forget to add in the cost of the dumpster. I think they are set fees, ask about any weight limits that may increase costs at landfill.Hope this info helpsRandy, CEIOn Mar 4, 2014, at 9:01 AM, Adam Bartos wrote:Yes, I am understanding that. The problem is how to estimate the extra time needed for disposal if I never used that product before.

In reference to your question of what you should charge? That's not a figure that anyone can come up with for you. You need to figure your cost of labor, product and disposal. Then figure out what margin you are working on and then you can calculate what to charge.

Best Regards,Randy Frye, CEI Surface ProsHey RandyJust curious how long that takes you to do a job that size? What kind of machine, and what was your process?Thanks sir looks awesomeThis is what it looked like when completed. Terrazzo you may have to alter a couple things. This is set know for vct install and they built walls around it for a lab clean room.<IMG_0033.jpg>On Mar 3, 2014, at 6:09 PM, Randy Frye wrote:We created this volcano look to dump in. We put the gel max in the water and stir and 20 minutes it was like blown installation, we could dig another hole to dump the auto scrubber and do it all over again.<IMG_0019.jpg>On Mar 3, 2014, at 4:51 PM, Adam Bartos wrote:its 7500 sq ft of terrazzo, that need to be stripped and polishedOn Mon, Mar 3, 2014 at 3:27 PM, Randy Frye <rfrye@comcast.net> wrote:
I would think it depended on the size job. $150.00 -$250.00 range not sure of the size and time.How much extra should I charge for this kind of disposal?Adam BartosBiO TileOn Sat, Jan 25, 2014 at 2:07 PM, Randy Frye <rfrye@comcast.net> wrote:
We did an 8000 sqft concrete grind job and the process shown on this video is exactly how we got rid of the slurry. Gel max works great.On Jan 25, 2014, at 12:44 PM, stuart rosen wrote:I copied this article below.-removing slurry is an service to be billed for.You can use pillow cases ,cotton sheets ,filter material to strain off the mud.You can also call a waste service like clean earth and they will sign off on the slurry.It will cost but you bill back to the customer with a premium for your time."The use of woven or nonwoven filter material may also be used to line holding containers. This will allow for the majority of particulate to be contained and allow the water to filter through by means of gravitation. The clear water by any means can be recycled and used in your operation or disposed of on the ground or in a sanitary sewer drain. The particulate will then have to be disposed of separately. Gravitational methods leave the slurry very wet, like drywall mud. If left over time it will continue to dry out. The use of a product that will solidify the slurry can be used to turn it into a gelatin-like material for easy transportation and disposal.If the slurry is considered hazardous only because it has a high pH, the slurry can be treated with an acid-based solution to bring it within acceptable levels. If the slurry is considered hazardous for other reasons, the particulate and water must all be disposed of so that it does not affect the environment. This may require the use of totally enclosed poly tanks or vacuum boxes, sealable 55-gallon drums or large lined dumpster filled a portion of the way to allow for transportation and removed off sight. Vacuum truck services may also be used to vacuum hazardous slurry out of holding containers and remove it from the site. Slurry solidification products are another option that can be used to absorb the water within the slurry turning it into a gelatin material that will pass EPA required testing to allow for its disposal in a regular landfill."On Sat, Jan 25, 2014 at 10:03 AM, Randy Frye <rfrye@comcast.net> wrote:
What about gel max and bagging up. Major pain. Also,We have a vac on a 55 gal drum and a couple 20 gal wet dry vacs we use if we need to take slurry with us.
