What a mess. Washer overflowed and that started the nightmare. The drain line that some genius put under the concrete foundation may be collapsed. So before the kitchen floor is jackhammerd to pieces we have to be sure. $1200 later, the leak detector company pinpointed the leak. Yep under the kitchen floor. So now a construction crew will come, then the plumber, then a concrete crew and then a floor installer. I get new a new floor out of all this. And homeowners will not cover the cost of repairing leaks, only the damage a leak causes. So we get the cost of new closet carpet and pad that the over flowed washer water ran into. Which is less then our deductible. So a good ten grand will be spent repairing one pipe leak. Check your insurance policy! Our agent said no insurance policy will cover the cost of repairing a leak. ?
