I’ve been in the game for over a decade and I still come across some wild fixes… Recently, I found a shower that was rigged with a garden hose as a pipe replacement — definitely not code! What’s the strangest repair you’ve seen on a job site?
I’ve seen some strange fixes too, like the time a homeowner used duct tape around a leaky pipe — I guess it’s the Swiss Army knife of tools? But hey, at least it wasn’t a garden hose! Have you ever come across any creative tape solutions?
A garden hose? That’s wild! I once found an old toilet held together with nothing but zip ties.
That shower story takes the cake! I once tackled a sink that was plumbed with PVC and chewing gum — a sticky situation for sure. Have you ever had to undo something like that?
