Basement flooded Wtf guys we had a really hot day yesterday so we had a little pool for the kids set up out front. Well…

Id help for free ;)

@crapbag, haha thanks. My brother in law did it for free for us. Well for a few beers lol

I was gonna say, my husbands a plumber. And hes hot, so if you lived close, he could have helped.

@crapbag, well we got the bill from the guys who dried it out. That was like 709 bucks. My brother in law is a plumber so he fixed the pipe for free!! So that’s a plus. Lost only a few toys that my kids don’t even play with anymore so that’s ok too!!

Geez, what a freaking nightmare. Sorry mama. Hope its not too much to repair.

Yea they came today but have to leave the fans for one more day to dry out the walls. Carpets is order dry @mimzof3,

That’s good that it’s all drying!

@mimzof3, well I just went down there and it seems to be drying out very well. There’s no smell. Luckily they are only cheap carpet tiles with a little padding underneath and they are on concrete. So they seem to be dry now

Oh no! Sorry this is how your day went! How’s the clean up going?

@danniijohn, well luckily they haven’t been playing down there too much so most of the toys have made their way upstairs lol. Don’t even know how much it’s going to cost. My bil is fixing the pipe for us now. But the professional cleaners haven’t billed us yet because they aren’t done!! So annoying when things like this happen

@ss3mom I'm so sorry this is how your day went, that sucks big time! I hope it's not too much money to fix and the boys haven't lost too much of their toys and furniture down there

@mkp1234, omg my basement play room is a hot mess right now!! My husband had a company some in to clean up the water now we have like 4 industrial sizes fans blowing in the room. What a freaking mess this is. Not to mention the dry wall had to be removed to get to the leak. Luckily mi brother in law is a plumber so he’s coming over soon to check it out!!

Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear this. We are doing basement Reno’s and it’s nightmare: I can’t imagine about fixing flooding. I hope you can get it sorted soon!

@kimtee, I swear this house is a freaking money pit!!

@moski, yea I’m trying but the carpet is literally sopping wet!! Like squishing under my feet. Luckily the kids don’t play down there too much. But there’s some things that will need to be thrown away. I have to get my ass down there and start going through everything. It’s such a mess

Aww no! That stinks! I hope everything works out.. replacing carpet and drywall isn't too bad but the pipes tho.. 😩 I'm sorry hon!

🤦‍♀️ what a mess! I would be so aggravated. But at least it’s just a small area. Look at the positives 😉

Ugh I know!! Now I have to empty the room and we have people coming to hopefully dry out the carpet and then someone to check the pipes. Then someone else to check the drywall!! Not exactly what I had in mind for the day but that’s what I’m going to be doing today!!

Uhg that sucks! 😖

Oh nooo! That sounds awful! I’m sorry 😓
