What Bricklayer Shortage?
Now that was a bricklayer shortage in 1971! That's when our masonry contracting company was so short on manpower, we decided to invent an adjustable masonry scaffolding system for ourselves! It had to be so fool-proof that every 4 mason crew would automatically produce like a crew of 5...regardless of the type of wall!
It worked! Our men loved it! We finally could get low when we had to and still make a fat profit! We even sold our new invention to our out-of-state masonry contractor friends. We priced it right. They bought out our entire inventory and wanted more. So much more that we had to go into the adjustable scaffolding business full-time. Yet our scaffolding didn't even have a name. We asked our customers for suggestions. They said we should call it Non-Stop. With that kind of masonry contracting heritage and masonry contractor involvement...no wonder we're the leader!
Here's what Non-Stop guarantees:
1. If you're small we guarantee that your 4 bricklayers will produce like 5.
2. If you're large we guarantee that your 100 bricklayers will produce like 125.
3. That's 25% more bricklayers who'll never call in sick, never eat lunch, never take a break and who love to do all the heavy lifting! Guaranteed!
4. Best of all, whether you're small or large, these extra bricklayer's will always work for free! The money the G.C. pays you to pay them stays in your pocket!
Use Non-Stop Heavy Duty for all your medium and large walls. It's been the gold standard since the beginning and the 2000 Heavy Duty is the best we've ever made.
Use Non-Stop Junior for all your small and medium walls (2 story houses, basements, brick fences) inside and outside! Junior's the lowest priced adjustable masonry scaffolding in the world! And, remember, Junior moves from wall to wall and is loaded onto pick-ups by hand...no forklifts necessary!
Simply, if your project is between $1,000-$10 million get ready to be the low bidder. You'll out-produce your competition on every job with far fewer bricklayers. Guaranteed!
1971...now that was a bricklayer shortage...until we invented Non-Stop! For our masonry contractor customers there hasn't been a shortage since.
