WATER LEAKS​

​Greetings Fellow Lake Park Residents​​,​ ​ f all the things that never happen at a convenient time,​ O ​we discovered that there were leaky pipes under our unit​ ​and we had no idea how long the leaks had been leaking.​ ​A young man had gone under our unit to check an issue​ ​with air conditioning ducts and he came out to tell us the​ ​bad news. We would have to shut off our water to the​ ​house while we figured out what to do.​ ​ he next day a plumber went down there and took pictures​ T ​that confirmed our worst fears. One leak was just dripping,​ ​but a second leak had a large puddle under it. The next day​ ​another guy would come to tell us our options and how​ ​much it would cost.​ ​ y frugal brain was hopeful that the leaks could be repaired​ M ​and all would be well, without too much expense. But the guy who came next​ ​day told me that a complete repiping was necessary, which would require a​ ​permit and would cost thousands of dollars, but, fortunately, they had a team​ ​ready to do the job immediately and they had payment plans to lessen the​ ​impact of the incredibly large estimate.​ I​ thanked the guy for the information and told him I would have to get another​ ​estimate, which did not seem to please him very much. (He was probably​ ​counting on the fact that I was desperate to turn the water back on.)​ ​ e did turn the water back on for a short time to fill our bathtub and another​ W ​large water container, and started hauling water to sinks and toilets. My frugal​ ​brain reminded me that Tony Citchetti is a good person to talk to in these​ ​situations! (He is our handyman for many jobs around the community; you​ ​probably have seen him riding around in the maintenance golf cart.) In a brief​ ​call he gave me some good contacts to do what I hoped could be done in the​ ​first place.​ I​n a short time I contacted the person recommended by Tony, and I realized​ ​that he had actually come to my house several years ago and fixed a small​ ​leak under the house! (My frugal brain is not so great in the memory​ ​department.) He fixed our problem quickly and inexpensively after all!​ ​--Bob, the editor man​ ​Volume 52, No. 10​
