🚧 My neighbor's bad day.


The poor guy across the street has Roto-Rooter Plumbers digging up his front yard. That's with a machine, not a shovel. Three work trucks, one pulling a closed trailer, another with a trailer for the digger. Oi.

That's got to be expensive. At the moment, there's a mountain of dirt in the middle of the yard and the entire front yard is taped off with a few orange cones set along the tape.

Oh, and Walmart just delivered a package to my front steps that belongs to Messy Marvin next door. I've texted him to let him know I have it. I have no idea what it is, but it's very heavy for its size.

Just my neighborhood update. 😉

My predication: Tree roots in the pipe

reply

You're probably correct. Either that, or a complete break in the pipe so they need to replace the entire thing. I live in an old neighborhood, many homes built in the 1890s and early 1900s. My house was built in 1926, and this is a bit of a concern for me. 😬

Most homeowner's insurance policies don't cover sewer or water lines that run outside the house (know this from experience). But there is secondary insurance available for those lines.

Yeah hopefully he has sewer line insurance. I do, it's like 5 bucks a month.
