Agreed. My most lucritive(sp) jobs were repairing the breaks in plastic pipes when they were stressed around a bend.
Ruined floors, floor coverings, altered routes with copper, insulation replacement, mobile homes were the most costly with limited crawl spaces.
Key word --- were.

A water leak can be a contractors and homeowners best friend if they know there way around an insurance policy.
Feel like you and I could talk for hours!! I’d probably do a lot of listening because you’ve got me by 30 years but I helped my uncle build his house starting at age 10. Took him 3 years and I helped with it all. So I’ve got 30 years plus I the game. Finally feel like I’ve gotten good enough at it to make real money! Owning/running a business isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be.

We could only run the flex to the appliance from the stub out, everything up to there had to be black pipe and I'll say it again I don't like working with black pipe. The main was set years ago, not sure if they were ran to all the houses in Huntsville back then that house was built in 1965.
