Drip, drip, drip….

I’ve had a steadily intensifying leak in the basement…. and recently sprung another leak down there. So I held my breath and called a professional. The plumber came today and we found the source of leak number one. It’s in the best possible of many horrific locations. yay. So he needs to replace about ten feet of 4 inch cast iron pipe. A wall will be opened, BUT it’s just an already semi-ruined wall in the stairs to the basement. It could have been MUCH worse. He’s coming on Wednesday afternoon to do the work and I’m hoping (nay, praying) that it comes in at under $500. Prayers from the blogosphere are welcomed!
