Homeowner Woes

We moved into our house on Christmas of 2009. We had an agreement to rent it for up to a year and then purchase it. We bought our house in November of 2010.

In August, I walked into our half bath and noticed a lovely puddle on the floor (can you sense my sarcasm?), and after careful inspection, Roger stuck his finger through the sheetrock. I came unglued. Turns out the spicket (sp?) that we replaced a few months ago started to leak about two weeks before we found the leak. We had some plumbers come out and they repaired the leak but then gave me some BS story about the piping and wanted $900 to replace it. Yeah, not happening buddy.


So after not having about five walls for the last couple of weeks, Roger is going to help us take the floor out of that room and let it dry for about a week. Then a friend of a friend, who is a contractor, is coming to basically "remodel" my bathroom. He wants to move the sink (okay by me!) and replace the sheetrock and flooring. His estimate was so good, I'm calling him for all my projects in the future!
