Hey, @agedhorse how's it going? :)

Just checking in, I keep forgetting about this thread over here.

Just one minor active leak. Fixing some minor water damage. Replacing shower valves, a bath faucet and toilet, kitchen faucet. Last thing will be part of kitchen ceiling

I really don't like plumbing projects.

I will gladly pay twice the going rate to get a plumber to handle these kinds of things. They come with a truck full of stuff they can run out to that would require 14 trips to the store for me - not to mention they know all the tricks of trade and are well practiced in using them.

Same thing with the demolition contractor for the pool I am removing. Experience goes a long way towards not making the same mistake twice. (so does death for that matter)

Although in my case I'm a little more comfortable with blowing stuff up than soldering copper pipes together, but I get your point! :thumbsup:
 
Great news, BE. Happy for you!

Yeah, way deep into it. Great pro handyman doing it all. His son came out and helped out today

Let's see, additionally,he had to snake a bath sink but some of the pipes were glued so had to be cut and replaced. Cut and replaced damaged vanity cab shelf.

Kitchen ceiling damaged caused by upstairs tub leaking in 3 places. Had to cut out a couple of sections of pipe, replace waste and overflow, glue it all back together. Start drywall repair.

Pulled out leaking, one hole faucet, Replaced it, pulled out all damaged wood under sink.

Next, finish drywall and continue down the list. There's a stall shower pan that needs to be replaced but may have to tear out the whole surround.

Bunch of other stuff added to list. While this was going on, I was outside getting my garage in order.

I'm really grumpy right now; back hurts, and just tired.

Okay for now. Gotta go, use guys keeps things in order. :thumbsup:
