When it’s late on a Saturday and the plumbing supply stores are shut, you’ve got two options — give up or get creative.
Rich from Plumbdog was helping a client install their washing machine in a brand-new home, but there was one big problem:
The waste hose was too short, and the old one had been cut.
Instead of calling it quits, Rich dug through the van and came up with a clever fix using only what he had on hand — a bit of copper pipe, some hose clamps, and even a garden hose from his jetter setup.
