Don’t you hate when home repairs don’t work?

July 8, 2009 by Tricia

Darn! Darn, darn, darn!

In case you can’t tell I’m a little frustrated right now. I just spent some time writing a post on my other blog detailing how we tried to fix the constant drip from our basement shower head.

I thought it was fixed! My husband told me last night once he finally got the old faucet back on that it was fixed …. but, after a quick visit to the basement to see if the shower head had really stopped dripping I discovered that it’s still dripping. At a good rate too! The washers my husband put in didn’t help.

Darn!

We have NO spare money at all. I guess we’ll have to live with the dripping for a while longer (yes we do shut off the water supply to the shower, but it still drips!). It’s been dripping for years and I don’t want to leave it too much longer. I guess as soon as we do have a little extra money I’ll spend some time trying to Price Pfister faucets and Moen Faucets and try to find one that fits our budget.

It figures that when we can’t spare any money on household repairs something needs fixing! Has that happened to you?

    Yes, there is always something at home, that need to be repaired. E.g. last week I’ve repaired broken faucet. Last month we had a little flood in the kitchen because something happened to the fridge. And that was a mess that I couldn’t fix by myself. Specialists was necessary.

    We had a bathroom faucet that was leaking at a rate of knots. So much so that we needs to keep a bucket under the sink. In the end it got so annoying that we stopped the tap from working by turning the screw in the pipework. When we got our bathroom tiled, our tiler said to us, of by the way I’ve fixed your tap, and it didn’t cost us anything. I guess some people are just naturals.
