She Should Have Used The Truck

Since the weather forced CMV to stay inside for most of the day, she decided to do a little bit of investigative work. She went into the bathroom and removed one of the sheets of paneling. What she found was very interesting.





Behind the bathroom paneling, was a mixture of old linoleum tile, drywall holes, rusty pipes, and water damaged wood. I can take care of replacing the bad wood, and hanging drywall. CMV can install tile on the walls and for the shower. My problem is trying to make sense of the plumbing system. We have a mixture of galvanized pipe, plastic PVC, flexible hose that resembles large aquarium tubing, and who knows what else. We may have met our match on this one. I am seriously considering calling a professional plumber.

Once CMV was ready to leave, she planned to take the scraps of paneling with her, only to discover it would not fit in the car. She should have used the truck this trip.

Maybe they are old pipes that have been relpaced, but not taken out. Rund all the water in the house and feel the pipes. Are they hooked up? Also,try following the lines in from the meter.
