There has just got to be options other then shelling out over 10 grand. Is there a man around the house to help if needed?
I have a idea. But I would need to know the location of the bell, what sets over it, and if could be gotten to by going in from the top od the slab rather then tunneling under it. Give me all the details that you have and we'll see if we can come up with another solution. Between you and me, that's the problem with modern day plumbers, they don't think outside the box. PS. I just read Growlers post. He brings up a good point. Have it checked by a different company and keep us in the loop. Regards, Tom
