"I had seen the ads for D&S Custom Covers numerous times and just never called to get pricing. Finally, after unloading all of our large diameter hose one night last winter only to find months, if not a couple years worth of dirt and grime covering the bottom tiers of hose and the hosebed, we decided to get some pricing on a cover. Within weeks we had purchased a bowed cover and Dave was up to install it at our station. The end product surpassed our expectations. We quickly found that the cover was dirty after every call, especially down the dirt rural roads in parts of our coverage area; however, it is much easier to wash the cover off than it is to unload the hose after every run.
We were so happy with the cover we quickly ordered one to protect the hose and hosebed of our new 2006 Freightliner Tanker. A neighboring station also ordered one after hearing how easy it was to deal with Dave and the tanker and their engine had covers installed the same day.
We've been using our trucks routinely for over 9 months now and the covers have stood up to the test.
Recently we had a Pump II class and unloaded all of our 5" hose and the hose was clean, dry and it didn't stink of mildew. It reminded me of just how
happy I am that we decided to get the covers. Previously the bottom tiers of hose were always dirty, wet and covered in mildew and provided for a smell you didn't soon forget.
Based on the cost and how easy it was to deal with Dave, I would recommend D&S Custom Covers time and time again."
