Another plumbing project

After the fix

Long story short – our plumbing was all clogged up.

Fortunately, it seemed to only affect the washing machine in any significant way (shower & toilet were, mercifully, spared).

So we called out favorite plumber – the first one we actually had success with (Intelligent Plumbing Services) – and had them out for what we all thought would be a simple power-rodding.

Was not to be.

Today, they tore up about a 3×2-foot section of our basement floor to see just what the hell was going on. Fortunately, they were able to identify the problem fairly quickly (broken section of pipe), repair same, and now we are good to go.

Expensive? Sure – the those are the breaks, pun fully intended. And it’s one of those things that needs to be done – it’s not really optional, like being without a toaster oven for a spell.
