Cage Fighter Trainee

I have this on a flexzilla hose and it’s held up well going on fine years now.

I had that large fireman’s nozzle and besides being cumbersome, the handle eventually broke off after being dragged around. The hose nozzle in the image has basically the same flow/pressure as that fireman looking nozzle.

I also have an Eley hose in the back yard which is nice but I think it’s intended to compliment their hose reels. I have it on a regular hose hanger and it’s a pain in the arse to wind up on a stationary hanger. It was pretty expensive too. I think if you had an Eley reel it would be perfect.

The Proplugger is not recommended for St. Aug but I’ve used it with good results.

I tuned them both out early on but couldn’t help but notice they have much better sidewalks than they do in my neighborhood.

Love the music in the video

Call a leak detection company. It’ll run you about $400 and they can usually tell you exactly where it’s coming from.

You can do a lot of damage investigating on your own.

A lot of insurance companies use American Leak Detection. It’s a franchise company with locations all over.

Save money and buy pre owned off of rv trader. Rvs are marked up 45% and all have bugs, most dealers are not trustworthy. Warranty pretty useless

I bought a travel trailer from Berryland a few years ago. It had a roof leak that was fixed once under warranty. I put it in storage and found it had leaked again within a few weeks from the same issue, the manufacturer let me know it was just out of warranty (by a few days) and they would not be covering it. I sold it shortly after for a few thousand dollars to stop paying storage fees on the POS. I really liked it while It wasn’t leaking but it remains the worst purchase of my life from a financial perspective.

If I really needed one, I would buy a higher end used one. Plenty of dealerships between Lafayette and Hammond.

What a pathetic attempt to do damage.

Take it a step further and add in your deductibles. Then see how much you have to spend before you get paid a dime.

If there were hangers on the line, and they broke, insurance will cover it..

Not exactly. If there is water damage or even a back up from the drain line into the home coverage is usually extended for the resulting damage as well as access to the pipe under the slab. Insurance does not usually include replacing the pipe or hangers due to corrosion, wear and/or tear. They pay for access only and since tunneling is cheaper than opening/closing the slab, paying for floors, etc. they usually extend coverage for the tunneling.

The cost involved is usually about $110-$115 a lineal foot to dig/tunnel and about $15-$20 a lineal foot to backfill. They will also need to dig a 4’x4’ base hole (at least one). There are additional charges for breaking through a chain wall (about $250/ea) or hard digging which depends on your soil.

You want the company to pump sand back to fill the void. Whenever they backfill with existing material they always have a good bit left over that needs to be hauled away and that is material that was supporting your foundation.

If you’re in the NOLA area, get quotes from Harold’s or Earl’s. They specialize in this and they both use sand to backfill.

Just an FYI, it’s not uncommon for the drain line under any home to have a sag. Most people probably don’t know they have a sag until they have a problem.
