MARCH - DEDICATED TO HOME
*'Josh, The Extraordinary Plumber' arrived yesterday with a Drain Snake and fixed the clogged bathtub drain.
- "Flat Tape Drain Snakes: These are flat, ribbon-like drain snakes used for clearing smaller, flexible pipes, such as those found in sinks and showers."
1st. He removed the drain stopper. The main problem was my hair clogging the drain. Then he used a Drain Snake to clear any hard water build up in the pipe. If these simple, easy to repair plumbing problems are not fixed in their early stages - huge problems develop. That's why there are so many massive water leaks - terrible plumbing disasters, in the 8 story building where I live.
Josh fixed the problem in a matter of 20 minutes, but I'll still be charged $100.00 basic 1 hour just for him for him to come out. I asked him to instruct me on how to remove the drain stopper, so I can check on a clog myself, and then put it back in place.
2nd. The lid on the toilet seat had a broken hinge. He also instructed me how to remove the enter seat, where to buy a new one, what kind it was, and how to install it.
- Today is dedicated to cleaning, sanitizing and polishing the bathroom fixtures, tile floor, tiles in the shower/bathtub area, the walls, and light fixture and mirror.
I prefer to do my own cleaning and dirty work - but what I can't do myself, I will hire someone. It has taken years just to find really great tradesmen like Josh for plumbing, Brett for windows, and Miguel for sheetrock and painting repairs. Each man is worth his weigh in gold. There is also a fantastic electrician who has helped me with electrical problems. And, 'Michael, The Computer, Data Recovery Archangel.
