Day 221: Things are really getting better



Since it's the same plumber came to fix the pipe last week he asked me if I had a new garbage disposal. HA! I (super proudly) answered that I installed it myself! But I did mention that it doesn't run and the issue might be the wall switch. So he wiggled the switch back and forth. And suddenly the disposal made some noise!!! It works!!! I couldn't believe it. He agreed that it's definitely the wall switch because there was no resistance when he pushed the switch up and down.

Then on a separate issue I asked him how to replace the cold waterline since I noticed some water formed around the connection. So he looked at it and mentioned that the line is made out of plastic and shouldn't be used at all. (As you know when plastic is old will be hard and it will break. And the water will burst in this case.) So he patiently explained how to replace it, what tools and material I need, and told me to be careful not to twist the copper line that came with the faucet otherwise I might need to replace the faucet too.

So what should I do next ? Replacing a wall switch or a waterline ? : )

Oh, the leaking pipe has been replaced. Drywall ceiling repair is being scheduled!

Happy me!
