How not to cobble up things. | Construction and DIY projects | Forums

I had a P trap that rusted through...I was selling the house and had no time to fix it (alright, I didn't give a darn about it)...I used a roll of electrical tape on it...You could not miss it, unless you didn't look...the Inspector said something to the effect that the plumbing drains were okay...sharp boy.

Nah...sold the house to a group of investors...they were greedy...but they had the cash and I needed to move on...My first house I got sued in small claims 3 times...1) when the water heater went after they had been in there for 6 months  2) when the well went dry in a hot summer (they had 7 people and 3 dogs in there and they were constantly filling the kiddie pools, thankfully I had the full FHA water inspection paper work that cleared me..btw, HUD was a major pain to deal with, I will never deal with them again)  and 3) for me taking the water softener system when I moved...I removed the softener before I even listed the house...I stored it in my barn...they thought they were entitled to it...I won all three cases.  What a pain they were, there dogs were constantly harassing cyclist and traffic and on my land (we got 1 put down after it's third documented attack).  Glad when they moved.
