WHY PUT UP WITH EASY FIXES - ask someone who cares to help

I recently repaired a partially cloged washer fill line. it was a bit tight but with a bit of extra elbow grease it came apart. A total of 5 minutes allowed the homeowner to once again wash in cold water, AFTER 5 YEARS! I couldn't help but wonder how much extra it cost over those years to wash in hot water. Sometimes it seems that the simple fixes go un- repaired as people get used to dealing with less then optimal results, don't let this happen to you - ask someone who cares and can help.
