Last yr, we had a ton of work done on our roof, siding, gutters, kitchen wall and subfloor from leaks that had been going on for yrs. (Probably b4 we bought the house, 13 yrs ago). Finally got to the bottom of it (and the top of it).Thousands of dollars later ... JUST FINISHED PAYING for it and now, it's the plumbing. First it was a stopped up sink. They had to come back with-equip to get a pump on the roof. Did that, cleared sink, I pd bill, went into kitchen and saw black gook coming up into sink. Called them back immediately, made them turn around. Found more gunk in hall bathroom.They just sent it deeper into the house and/but didn't solve the problem.Lots of rust and blk stuff in the sink.Came back today with-equip on roof, broke kitchen drain (I knew that was going to happen), said most of the problem is under the house and then under the ground and they dug as deep as they could go.Tomorrow a skinnier guy comes over to go back into the crawlspace.They charge by the hr because they don't know what will happen.$173 + $195 + $329 ... tomorrow will be a whole day. I wanted new wallpaper and more savings so we could send difficult child to a boarding school and I just know this is going to be in the thousands ...Can't use the dishwasher, kitchen sink, or bathroom sink. I don't mind eating out but I wish it were free.
