Laundromat Makeover-- This is the beginning of transforming one of my newest laundromats
What is up guys?! Never would I have ever guessed that we would be buying another laundromat, let alone 4 and a car wash. We were well on our way of being back in the home building game, and looking at getting out of the industry. Until we had this dumped in our laps. This was all by chance, and I guess I'll have to make a video on just that. Because I told myself no many times through out and finally it all just fell in place.

I'm modifying my quarter pusher for my unattended laundromat!

I'm modifying my quarter pusher for my unattended laundromat. With a couple of modification and reinforcements, I think this will end up working pretty good in my unattended laundromat. I'll have to post another short when I get this installed. I'm hoping the first of next week, but only time will tell.
Update--Why I haven't uploaded a video in almost a year and why I only own one laundromat now.

What is up guys?! Back at the original laundromat for a couple of days, and let me tell you. It sure was a mess. It still amazes me to this day how filthy some people can be. I’d be disgusted if I was part of the problem and left a mess like that. Enjoy! Who am I? Hi, My name's Jacob and this is my channel; There, I fixed it.

Botched Repair - Sometimes things break and it’s your fault
Просмотров 3663 года назад
What is up guys?! I botched a repair! It sucks when a machine goes down, especially when it’s your fault. Turns out that the bell seal wasn’t included in this kit that I had on hand, and when I put everything back together it didn’t hit me that I missed a piece. That’s why it pays to lay your old parts out and make sure you have everything. Who am I? Hi, My name's Jacob and this is my channel; ...

Hey Jacob, can you post some fresh video? Thanks....
Jacob, can you video your other laundromats? Thanks. Tom in California....
@@thomassnew1053 working on it. I have been swamped!
If the donuts sell so well, you should devote a whole self to nothing but donuts. Love your videos!😊
You making a video about some new places I hope...
@@TheSoloAsylum I got 4 more places to go 👍
Thanks for posting Jacob. Tom in California
very happy for you! keep moving forward
@@steventaylor2561 thanks!
Homeless are a bid problem sometimes
Ive got SpeedQueen 45 pound dryers love them.
While you've been gone i built a laundromat
@@davidoutdoors74 congrats!
Hey your back
What’s wrong with his back?
Jacob, thanks for posting!
@@thomassnew1053 thanks for watching!
good luck with your new coin laundry
the 20lb are however better than the top loaders and the HE washers.
congrats!!!!
I like the view looking down into the coin collection boxes
You didn’t show us the meter boxes!!! Paint, new lights, blacktop seal- overall place don’t look too bad
Just talked to my wife about the black top sealing people today. But I haven’t even had time to open a meter box! I’ve ordered a new tripod so hopefully soon.
@@ThereIfixedityttext me if you have any questions, closing on my third location soon
Congratulations and welcome back
Thanks!
Something else you might want to consider putting in is hand held air dryers in the bays. Chris from Car Wash Chronicles put them in all of his and says they help bring in extra money as well.
I’ve never used them personally but I’ve seen them
Looking forward to a lot of laundromat content. Good luck sir. Tom in California
I’ll try my best
Thanks for posting & good luck with the car wash. Really nice Laundromats too!
Thanks
Whole Toledo, a clean motor room. You could teach other RUclipsrs something!!
I can’t take much credit. The previous owner liked to keep things nice.
@@ThereIfixedityt well that's a win in my book. I think a series about each location would be awesome. What they look like when you took over, what problems you had, improvements and the success. I think you're one of the few that showed the good/bad/ugly of laundromats. Keep up the great work and can't wait for the new videos.
Welcome back. I'm glad to see you are doing well and keeping yourself busier than ever.
Thanks, I went from working half the year to working 24/7 lol
Wow you jumped in the deep end. I'm waiting to see how you renovate the place. Looks like it's in decent shape.
Off the high dive into the deep end lol
Good to see you active!!
Thanks
Wow Jacob, you decided to give things another chance with a car wash and 4 coin laundry places. I bet you missed the old places you owned
Good to hear from you
@@ThereIfixedityt sure thing
Looking forward to fresh content
Excellent vintage video. Looking forward to fresh content. Tom in California
Nice! Glad to see a video again
Enjoy the content..... Please post more!
Excellent........
That's not to bad
Maybe turn the flashing lights off as well to make it stand out more it is out of service. Some people might miss the light :(
The carriage doesn’t move while the light is on.
Great to see you again!
Hey, thanks!
Glad to see you posting again definitely missed it
I appreciate that
Coin Laundry.... Never a dull moment
I did not know you had another store ( #2 ?) Congrats ! Your youngster should be old enough by now to do the collecting :)
She’s old enough. But lord that be a long video. She is very independent. But I only gave 1 store as of today. I had to shut the OG down. But. Stay tuned. I have surprises on the wat
Please continue to add more videos, you are amount an elite bunch of honest, truthful mat owners. Welcome back !
Thanks means a lot
I'm thinking about doing something like this for my change machine. Hey, where you been?
I have smart switches that auto reset at night on my changers. If need to be I can cycle it during the day. I’ve been building houses for the past couple years but I have some content on the way.
I would bolt it down to the concrete... add a motion alarm that will turn the machine off for 10 minutes if someone shakes it...
Sounds like we think alike. That’s already part of the plan.
Man! Coin pushers is a risk I would not want to take for my business! Its a good way to get shut down as they are illegal to operate in most states except for AK, GA, IL, MA, & MN and a handful of other states as long as you have a gaming license.
They are borderline where we are. they’d have to shut down every business around me. They are super common
Good to see you! It's been a long time............ Please keep posting videos. Thanks!
I’ve got some content coming.
@@ThereIfixedityt Excellent.......
Hopefully you been doing ok
Been good. Super busy. How are you?
@@ThereIfixedityt so far I am hanging in there
How do I get the parts
you will make lots of money on this one. looks very nice lots of room, and people really need this place up and running...
you forgot to install the spin basket paper gasket under the spin basket ????? i really do not see why factory wants it installed...but it was a very good video i think, 24 hours to dry??? i have glue from whirlpool thats made to set up when water makes contact with the sealer glue, so we test it when everything is done, no problem no leaks yet i have done over nine hundred of them...
@45:00 you can see you put the top panel right on the wire harness ??? that was a 5 STAR MISTAKE THERE... Haha. that could of been a nightmare if you broke the connector...
on those big springs what you need that will work very easy is what i got on E-Bay a 14 inch long hook tool with a screw driver handle on the other end, $14 it works great...
Can you supply a part number or idea where you got the tool? Thanks
Great to see you post again!
