Re: Where's My Plumbing Brothers
I'm here!!
Been swamped, so I have just been a reader latley. I had a funny one happen yesterday.... Installed a tankless and softener on this house that had God aweful hard water. Client calls me telling me she thinks she has a leak in the ceiling...see's black mold on the ceiling drywall and it's damp. The location was no where near anything I touched.....So I'm thinking maybe the A.C. condensor lineset has a pinhole or along those lines. I get there and cannot get access to above so I cut the ceiling open. I find a hot water 1" copper line loaded with calcuim and a small small amount of water. I remove the insulation and follow the pipe about 20" to see a 90 that has half loaded with calcuim and the other half...clean. Tell the client what the problem is and a estimate to remove / replace the bad pipe. Remove the bad sections, and pill the fitting apart to see a bad solder joint. Client asked why this happened....best answer was "because since we nolonger have nasty hard water to keep that terrible joing clogged shut". Pulled another few joints appart to see they are all bad. The HOA lawyer contacted me today for a deposition request and to send pics.....the life of a plumber. I'll upload the pics as soon as my Vicoden kicks in!!!

Re: Where's My Plumbing BrothersQuote:
I hear ya...I'm tired too. She wants simply for me to get it on record what I found, didn't even care that I fixed it. She is going after the builder. 2 other units already had massive 2nd floor leaks. This is a condo complex where the least expensive unit is a million, easy. I really don't like getting into these sort of things and let her know that. She said my time would be compensated X2 my normal rate, so that's $180 per hr. I an re-dooing the 3rd unit right now. Each one takes me about a week to week and a half. The water is so bad that tanked heaters barely last a year. If I can get the entire complex the wife will be getting a brand new Toyota Sequoia. At least that's the goal for 08!!!

Re: Where's My Plumbing Brothers
Hope your problems smooth-out Rifle.
You love your tank-less don't you James? I attended an excellent Rinnai seminar on Tues.Actually it was a certification for servicing the unit.We gutted the units completely and rebuilt them.Really really informative,many thanks to the Roemer agency in Texas. I thought ol Ron was like a moderator or something now,that would make him awol right about now. Killer is probably have a candle light dinner in a posh pent-house with the owners daughter...... Where is the ol boy from Wash state ,haven't seen him around lately? Well,at any rate hope you all are doing well. |

Re: Where's My Plumbing Brothers
Hope you don't feel slighted sir,when I see you posting I don't think Plumber for some reason but more along the lines of re-modeling .I don't know why that is stuck in my head but I will sure try to give the respect you deserve as a Plumber!Have a great day.
