Like what you've done with the place

Today, I came home from work to find my house was flooded from a broken pipe under the sink. My house had just recently had new wood floors, carpet and electrics installed because 6 months earlier my house had been flooded by the same pipe breaking. FML

You would think you'd get better pipes first

What I want to know is why Op didn't deal with the pipe the first time!

The exact same pipe? Wouldn't you have replaced it after it broke the first time?

More than likely since she repaired everything else and her house would have flooded several times a long time ago. The repair guy probally just did a shitty job.

I agree with Sophie, she should have tried to fix her pipe before fixing everything else. And to all you smartasses, she didn't fix her because it clearly says "the exact same pipe" breaking 6 months earlier.

25 - are you ******* stupid. If your pipe BREAKS, it is clearly not usable. Normally I'm a calm person but ignorance and stupidity piss me off.

Actually 29, you would be the idiot. I just said in my comment that her pipe is broken and she should have fixed it (or at least replaced it) because it was broken. I hope you get modified for your stupidity.

Ok, look here girl with the jacked up clown face. Hypothetically if op had a hole in their pipe because it was rusted or whatever, and he put duct tape on the pipe instead of getting a new piece or welding over it, then it's not really repaired now is it?

I would just give up after that

What, and just live a house half submerged in water? It's not really something you can give up on.

In a house* My apologies, I do hate an error. Especially in my own comments!

That's really horrible, OP. People are really getting lazy with their jobs. Tip: Always search on the internet for the best company's near your area to fix broken items in your household.

New floors, new carpet, new electrics, but no new pipe?

The op probably had the pipe replaced. But I suspect the pipe is stressed too much. Maybe clamped down too hard or to tight of a bend. Or a shitty repair man.

Don't know. He was standing there with a tool in his hands.

Well, "water" you waiting for? Call them back. At least you'll get to change anything you didn't like after the first flood.

11- That would definitely be a plus if OP were rich.

21- Lol like insurance ever pays for everything :P

The bottom of my parents water heater rusted out and flooded the basement. And it was constantly trying to refill itself. They got new carpet, luggage, couches, and a bunch of other stuff. Seemed pretty fair to me.
