I got a call 'early' this morning. It was the landlady.
She noticed a 'bit' of water in the basement and some in her drycleaning business.She came into my shop.
Guess I was the "lucky" one! (NOT!!!)
Water tank in one of the upstairs apartments broke!
I had just about got everything wet-vac-ed, started putting away what I'd salvaged when they began removing the tank. This caused the second , though smaller, downpour.
I guess it could've been worse,it can 'always' be worse.Luckily it's a slow time here and didn't ruin a whole lot of work in progess.
I managed to rid myself of a lot of excess papers, Spring cleaning should be done by the end of the day, since work isn't happening, now if I could only read what is on all those inventory sheets! That crumbly ceiling tile stuff sure is messy and sticks to everything!
Hope you're all having a better day than me!

When I had my shop the roof leaked and ruined a bunch of decals and my fax machine. The landlord replaced the fax and gave me a couple months free rent.
Hope you get all your spring cleaning done soon! Posted by Glenn Taylor (Member # 162) on :
I feel for ya, Shirley. Our water heater broke too.
The utility bill was a killer!
But seriously, I hope you didn't lose much. Water damage can be worse than fire.
Best of luck to you. Posted by FranCisco Vargas (Member # 145) on :
