Talk about mission creep, I knew this would happen, but really?
Our plumbing adventure has now gone BIG time.
They'll be replacing the line from the meter to the house, new ball valve to replace the old gate valves, new hose bib, and reconnect the sprinkler system too. Then they'll be replacing the hot water heater because, well, it's easily 20+ yrs old so it's gotta go too.
All that for an estimated $11k.
My wife thinks it's a deal as she has a friend who said it's going to cost them $10k just to run a new line from their kitchen to the street.
I'll just be glad when it's all done.
Oh, and we'll lose that bush which I'm not that upset about, but I have put a lot of work into growing it nice so it'd hide all the plumbing stuff. Oh well.
This is a shot of the 'bandaid' they put in so we'd have water in the house until all this other stuff is ready to go.
