A new referral wanted me to quote a bathroom remodel job at his lake home. I needed to check out some of the infrastructure of his cottage and turned off the main water supply. Unfortunately, with little force I broke off the handle. My potential customer was planning on spending the weekend at his summer place, but now he had no water. It needed to be fixed so I drove the 2 hours back to Chicago and picked up my tools.
I recently purchased a pro-press, a very cool device that press-fits pipes without soldering. That was a Godsend as I was able to drive back and complete the job and make my potential customer happy.
