well today was such a nice day, we decided to do yard work. I was outside for about 3 hours hose running on and off. Well it was the first time this spring I turned on the hose. Let me say never use the hose with out checking inside after a short time.....It seems at some point this winter the pipe from house to outside fitting broke. so every time I turned the hose on. the water shot through my fineshed basement. $50 grand a year ago......Mt teen daughters bedroom all her things a very expensive Broyhill bedroom, computer, the toy room. I never would have thought this could happen, we have been homeowners 17 years, and never heard of this happening....The long and short It is supposed to be covered as the broken fitting is on the inside of the foundation. there for considered inside water. But, If extraction of the water is not successful from my brand new rugs, they may have to rip it all out including the sheet rocked ceiling and walls. I am just sick over it..... such a weird thing, Anyway just venting.....I guess its laugh or cry. I will choose to laugh it is done and I least I did not turn on the sprinklers and go out to lunch like I almost did>>>>.
