Title: bloody plumbing!
Post by: peterp1per on September 23, 2008, 10:55:46 pm
Thought i'd decorate the bedroom over the last couple of weeks only to find a damp crack in the concrete floor, me thinks thats not right :o

have always had a bit of a moisture problem in the bedroom since we moved in too.

turns out to be a bust rad pipe in floor, so now i've got a big hole in the floor, a water saturated concrete floor and a very light wallet after getting the pipe exposed and repaired by a plumber.  :(

better not be anymore busted pipes.... >:(

costs a bloody fortune this home ownership malarky...lol

still the pipes fixed  :)
