Qmulus, you sound like an awesome dad. Would you mind coming to Oklahoma when you finish your daughter's house? I just want to have a new washer and dryer hookup installed. The plumber I called in early November said, "After Thanksgiving." Then said before the end of the year. I set up the electrician for early January. I gave up on that plumber and tried calling two more. Still none have come by the house, but the electrician did and said that I should have the plumbing done first.
I'm about to dig out my copy of 'Handyman's Handbook' and DIY.
