Cost me $813 just to be able to flush my toilets again -- not counting what it will cost us to repair the damaged ceiling. Not to mention that my sunroom is leaking from the weight of 2-1/2 feet of snow on the roof.
sounds like a well built house ... union labor, no doubt
Plumbers probably had atleast $14 in parts ya know! ;-)
Well, the pipes froze because yesterday our electronic garage door developed the amusing little tick of opening itself automatically after it closes, and my wife didn't notice it when she pulled into the garage for the night. So the garage was open to the frigid temperatures all night.
As for the sunroom, don't get me started. Seems our trusty building inspector missed a few problems when he checked out the house before we bought it a few years ago.
And of course, having flunked shop in 8th grade, I am not exactly what you'd call handy. Nothing more pathetic than a Jew with a hammer.
Union labor no doubt.
