kempy Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Do you have to connect to the main, or bridge over it? Just curious on why you had to dig it up? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepers Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 the pipe was cracked so we had to pay to replace it. even though it belongs to water care. and we all pay for the upkeep of the pipe network. and its their responsibility to maintain the network. we have to pay to fix their pipe. before we can build a house over it. and we will have to bridge over it with the foundations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris r Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 At least you found the leak now rather than after the house is done 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sheepers Posted April 21, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 21, 2017 so the drain layers worked until 1am to get the new pipe installed. so i didn't get much sleep Wednesday night. but its done and dusted. there is still a pile of clay to be removed from the front yard and the digger is still here but thats minor stuff. after the drain was finished i did some more smash. tomorrow ill take down the last piece of wall (which will take all of about 10 minutes) and then clean up the mess. 2017-04-20_03-18-29 by sheepers, on Flickr 2017-04-21_05-28-54 by sheepers, on Flickr 2017-04-21_05-29-12 by sheepers, on Flickr 2017-04-21_05-28-34 by sheepers, on Flickr and thats where we are up to. im hoping the builders will start next week. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris r Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Did they leave the keys in the digger? It could take less time to remove that wall... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
