Arrived home about 9pm last night to find the basement flooded, no heat, house at 29 degrees, and no water in any of the bathrooms. The furnace repair people could not get the needed part so we are without heat until tomorrow. We bought a pump and are pumping out the water from the basement and using the fireplace and space heaters to get a bit of warmth - we are now up to 45 degrees in the family room. The plumber is coming after he deals with a couple of other people with broken-pipe problems. Not fun.

Well.... At least you could get a bucket of water from the basement to flush the toilet with.
ReplyDeleteWhat a mess.
Perhaps a stay at a nice hotel is in order. Looks awful.
ReplyDeleteWe now have heat, water, and a new sump pump and hot water tank. Washer and dryer repairmen will come next week. Not sure yet what to do about the elliptical machine. Basement is still drying out.
