Setbacks with new home’s plumbing system
When my husband plus I were touring houses to buy, my friend and I were absolutely concerned with the size plus location of the property, and i was looking for a property with a immense home office, plenty of closet space plus a yard for the youngsters to play in… My husband was focused on finding a two-car garage, an section to set up a workshop plus the cost of property taxes; Since we’d always rented apartments, my friend and I had no idea of the importance of the plumbing system, electrical system plus heating plus cooling system, and while my friend and I paid for a property inspection, it was a total waste of money, the property inspection uncovered some complications with plugs that needed to be upgraded to GFIs plus a missing railing around an outdoor patio.
- What the inspector failed to find was outdated plumbing pipes so blocked with hard water buildup that the shower head plus faucets barely gave any water pressure.
The drains were so jammed with soap scum, hair plus grime that my friend and I were always faced with kneeling water, and one toilet ran always while the other one frequently overflowed. My associate and I had complications with the water heater, the faucets plus even the garden hose! All of the plumbing was a complete disaster. Within a year after moving into the home, my friend and I hired a professional plumbing contractor to replace everything. They installed new pipes, new drains, a new water heater, new pump plus even needed to pump out the septic. My associate and I invested in new faucets, sinks, tub, shower stall, toilets plus had no option but to replace all of the water-using appliances, such as the washing device plus dishwasher.
