    Ugh, that’s beyond awful with what you folks have been dealing with down there. If you ever have to re-plumb it, consider PEX. It’ll expand and not burst if it freezes.

    I read about that last night. I’d rather level this dang house and start over with a slab. It’s just me most of the time so I don’t need much.

    I feel for you. Just about every project we ever do never goes as planned. Multiple trips to the hardware or big box store as we do the project is usually the norm. :( Best wishes in getting everything fixed as quickly and as painlessly as possible.

    Good Morning Folks :hattip:

    Sun is shining. Coffee is hot.
    No big plans this weekend. The wife is going shopping tomorrow with a friend. Looks to be an all day event.

    Good luck. Your Texas drama is a good wake up call for everyone. I've got 2 stepsons living in Austin and one is staying with a friend who had power. The other one and his girlfriend are getting by the best they can. They plan on moving to Iowa this year.


    @MTgirl

    Has this ever happened to you.

    what are you dealing with - tile on wood sub or tile on concrete?

    o_O you trying to get banned Mister?

    maybe check with any neighbors first, they might be in the same boat, you can bring parts and supplies back for them too

    nope. can't say anything's ever been down the hole before. i have run into a couple of packrats and small rodents that get in the outhouse if someone leaves the door open...then if the door shuts while they're in there and they get trapped and they get pissed ... also came across one outhouse that had had a skunk inside fairly recent. the smell...OMG. Pretty sure they had to demo that one, no saving it. So I'm in the habit of cracking the door and taking a peek before fully committing to going inside to do my business.

    It's on my dresser, I didn't need money to step out in the backyard.

    With all the ice and snow that fell on top of it. I'm going to let that shit melt first, so I'm not going anywhere for another day or two.

    Many times a frozen pipe doesn't show it's ugly head till after temps get above freezing.
