I guess when you don’t pay your bill or answer your front door you wouldn’t know why you don’t have any water in the house 
You can bet I collected payment before I left the property.

I saw this while passing through a parking lot.
I stopped and asked the roofer guy if he wanted to borrow my ladder. He said yes and I told him to bring it by my shop when they complete this job, I have a spare.
But I still LMAO at them.,

That basin sink looks like a salad bowl we used to have.
Lawn near the baby mattress is very nice. Looks like the storebought kind. LOL.
/facepalming on that ladder. Very nice of you to let them borrow your ladder.

That lavatory reminded me of a punch bowl.
Lawns look good when you get more rain per year than any other city in the mainland, usually. It’s usually warm here fir about 9 months out of the year.
Opinions welcomed.
I have a customer that wants this water heater drained, a catch pan installed and then reinstall the water heater.
It’s date of manufacture is 01/2008 making it 13+ yrs old.
What you you do ?

I would take their money.
Also install a ball valve on the cold inlet, if the existing valve looks iffy.
Also change both elements, and get a look at the inside while you are in there.
Maybe vacuum out the chunkier stuff.
Is there a floor drain to pipe the pan into?
I would also put a water alarm with the sensor in the path of where a slow leak or gusher will run to.

You won't have to replace that part when I'm back in 2-months to replace the unit and gate valve after I've shaken loose 13+ years of gunge!!
(edit side note, just for my edification: is that 3/4" TPR drain, into a wall, (code) compliant? )

This house is sold. The buyers demanded the water heater be installed in a pan and piped to outside. The sellers are not willing to pay a dime for anything extra unless it breaks while installing the pan. I will verify both elements operate and have proper amp draw before I leave.
Very few floor drains in residences here.
You can bet I’m going to take their money.
We pipe our water heater T&P valves outside.

Make sure you plaster your card somewhere so they know who to call when it needs to be replaced (next month!)
I told this guy that next time negotiate out of doing anything except for replacing the water heater.
We don’t want to satisfy the sale at the expense of changing our way of doing business and the way we do business isn’t to do work that we wouldn’t normally recommend.
So, I’m now replacing the water heater. I advised him the most economical way for him to get this done is to have me a water heater of the same approximate size in the room when I get there and have it out of the box.
My ankle is jacked so I don’t want to move the heater around really. Normally I bring my own. He’s going to remove the old heater himself. House is vacant.

Home inspectors get me a ton of work. Not directly but by writing up problems and the the buyers demand it gets repaired by a licensed plumber and provide a receipt showing it was paid.
That last part I really like. They beat my door down with a check to get that paid in full invoice for closing. It’s all about the closing
You want to sell a realtor on something just start talking about holding up the closing

You must be “teed” off.
Or in a “cross” mood.
Or feeling “bushed”.

Supplyhouse.com sells stuff I can’t get in town. I like odd fittings. I’m an odd person.
