Hole in the Ceiling

Last month GP and I were in the basement studio playing Rocksmith and he asked me if I was ever going to do something about the spot on the ceiling of the closet. "What spot!?!?" I asked him. "That one right there on the ceiling."


I immediately though the worst - the closet is under every water/drain pipe and HVAC duct in the house.


We cut out a patch and found that it was drip from a seeping butt joint on one of the water lines. I'm not a plumber and I don't enjoy sweating copper joints, so we called in an expert. He was able to make the repair in less than 30 minutes.


It took $20 and an hour to patch up the hole and retexture the pattern. The studio is good as new again.
