What I look for in Tampa Bay

  • A mix of 1970s screened pools and new-build saltwater systems
  • Routes split across the bay with more windshield time than they need
  • Long-tenured customers who still mail a check every month
  • A second tech who could stay on, or could not — either is fine

None of that is a criticism. It is what a route looks like when it has been run by one person who cared more about keeping customers than about tidying the paperwork. It also means the value sits in what the route could do, not only in what it does today.

No cost, no obligation

If it does not have one, leave it blank.

Rough is fine. "Cape Coral and north Fort Myers" tells me plenty.
