Labor<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; COLOR: #000000; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">
<DIV>Wrenches,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We have been asked to quote a large number of installs on comp
shingle roofs for an individual owner who requires Oatey flashing's
with a 3" standoff on all installations. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For the past 2 years we have installed the QuickmountPV product on
comp shingle roofs and are use to the labor rate quoted for that, my notes
from 2+ years ago seem to reflect a 20+% savings in labor by using the
QMPV vs the Oatey and standoff method.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Since my notes may not be accurate, I am curious if you are willing to
share, what the rest of you have experienced with the labor
difference?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance.<BR></DIV>
