I took my under appreciated wife out for dinner Wednesday night, she finished work early and I thought I'd treat her.
We rarely go anywhere without some kids tagging along. So since I'd taken the kids to the mall earlier in the evening and bought them dinner afterward, I dropped them at home and we went to eat.
We had barely sat down and were looking over the menus, when our oldest daughter calls in a panic. "Water is coming out of the vents in the basement!"
We rush home and the washer had malfunctioned soaking the utility room and connecting half bath and pantry, beginning to run into the kitchen. I was shocked, where are the kids, just then my 19-old son comes up from downstairs with wet towels in his arms.
I couldn't believe it, I asked him what's going on why is there standing water. he said "this is nothing it's way worse downstairs!"
It was, the family room and computer room was raining from the dry wall.
It sucks having a water loss at your own home. I was so pissed driving to the shop to pickup a WDR truck.
As I drove back to the house though, I began to realize the irony of my house being wet and me as upset as my customers get.
It made me laugh and I began see the bigger picture, an hour of extraction and we will setup the drying process and begin recovery.
It's nearly dry, except the floor which the wife picked up some samples today.
Next time, it's carryout! :wink:
Ever have a water loss in your house?
