Ok , here we go. Went to a property today. Customer had wet carpet in the hallway traced it back to the airing cupboard, bottom of cylinder was on the verge of falling out, quoted for job, accepted all good
Then they say, can you have a look at the waste piping. I want prepared for this
The waste dropped directly into a six foot void with no piping to the outside. They had Been dumping bath water down there for the past 12 years. Needless to say the outside brick work was in a right mess. The crazy thing is,it was an easy run for the waste piping straight out of the back wall into the soil pipe.
Who in their right mind would have left a job like this, beggars belief !
On the up side, they booked me in for a complete refit mid September.... Happy days.
