Well, I have 4 guys in my house; they are everywhere! After discovering another leak in 2 months in the pipes under the foundation, we are having our entire house repiped! EEK! New pipes in the attic and coming down in the walls to connect to each fixture.
This is NOT how I wanted to spend our tax refund! But it's a reputable company and the lead guy is an alum! Well spoken (and nice looking:)) and no plumber pants!heehee

Wait, there's more! As they were taking out the fixture in the master bath (which is around 5ys old) the end (where the nut screws off) breaks! And it's integrated, meaning they can't change hoses. Urrrgh, off to Home Depot to buy a new fixture!:furious3:(and use the bathroom as the water is off).
Have a great day!

All finished! At 5pm, they were gone. They cleaned up pretty well; now I just have to get the drywall and such in order. Yes, it was on the contract that they don't do the actual drywall repairs. However, most of it doesn't show (under the sink,etc). But not to worry, I have friends!
