You Know If You Fix It Right,

 You Only Have To Do It Once

 

I come across repairs that have been done several times and caused by the same reason. The problem have never been corrected, only patched to function. The problem with this is that if you do not repair things correctly, it is just a matter of time before it happens again.

 

 

This drain line has a lot of pressure on it to one side – it wasn’t installed straight. By forcing the pipe straight and connecting, there will always be a force on it. It was repaired a few times but the pipe has continued to crack in new places.

We will be making an effort to get things straightened up for good this time.

The old adage is true once again.  You might want to edit your headline and add a t.

Hi Tom, I wonder if it's time we girls should give up on the 'Honey Do' list and call a qualified contractor? If hubby doesn't know what he's doing, you''ll be calling one anyway!

Tom, one thing is for sure. If anyone wants a job done correctly ... they need to hire you.

If you don't have time to do it right.... 

 

So the saying goes, hopefully the next time that line's fixed will be the last time.

If you don't have time to do it right the first time, When will you have time to do it over?
