The Texas sun is no joke — and it’s frying more than foreheads
I was talking to a buddy the other day — runs a framing crew over in Garland. He said one of their tablets flat-out shut down mid-inspection last week. Overheated. Lost half a day sorting it out.
Here’s the thing: this heat doesn’t just wear down your people. It cooks your tech too.
And when the tools that keep your jobs moving go down… well, the whole site can grind to a halt.
You know the drill:
- Wi-Fi drops out in the middle of a call with the city
- Tablets freeze when crews try to pull up blueprints
- Laptops in site trailers overheat and crash right before a bid deadline
It’s a slow bleed — in time, in money, in credibility.
If you're running a lean operation, this kind of thing adds up fast.
But there are ways to stay ahead of it.
Rugged gear. Cloud backups. Smarter site connectivity.
And maybe most important — a partner who watches your tech like you watch your job costs.
Because you’ve already got enough fires to put out. Your IT shouldn’t be one of them.
Let’s keep it simple, keep it running, and keep your crew building.
