Around 5:00 p.m. today, we went by the house to run some speaker wire for the surround sound. When we arrived, we noticed a lot of water on the right side of the house. We initially thought the neighbor next door had ran her sprinkler system. Not thinking anything of the water, we continued on to the front door. Upon entering the house, we heard the sounds of water not the peaceful quiet we usually hear. John immediately ran into the master to find water standing in the master bedroom and bathroom and water gushing out of a pipe under the jet tub. After not being able to locate a way to shut off the water in the house, John ran outside to the street to find the shut off valve for the water. Once he turned that off, the water stopped shooting out of the pipe in the bathroom. We then called the builder who came over with his wife to inspect the damage. The builder told us that he would have his plumber at the house asap. He also said that they would replace the trim in the master bedroom and bathroom as well as some of the trim in the breakfast nook that had water damage. Around 7:00 p.m. ish, the plumber showed up and removed the water and put a fan in the house to initially dry out the master bedroom and bathroom. So...the house project may be slowed a little.
Take a look at the video and pictures below.
