Ever had one of those days where everything that can go wrong… does? That was Richard’s Monday at Plumbdog.
The Morning Mayhem
Richard started the day with the usual routine: drop the kids off, jump in the van, and head to the first job. But chaos struck fast:
1️⃣ Delivery mix-up – plumbing products were delivered… to the wrong house. After a bit of detective work, he tracked them down across the road at a house with a removed hot water system. Crisis averted! ✅
2️⃣ Power outage at the job – setting up for a shower breach replacement behind tiles, the drill wouldn’t work. ⚡ Turns out, the electrician on-site had turned the power off to upgrade the fuse board.
Plumber vs Electricity
Tiles ready to come off, power down, Richard had no choice but to:
•Laugh
•Head to the local park
•Wait for a text before getting back to work
Even though the day started stressful, Richard made the most of it — enjoying the sunshine after a rainy weekend and keeping perspective.
💡 Takeaway
Sometimes plumbing isn’t just about pipes — it’s about:
•Patience
•Problem-solving
•Keeping a sense of humour
