Before we left for the summer, we needed to make our yard as maintenance-free as possible. We had two things to do: 1) plant hearty, resilient plants, 2) install a sprinkler system. Jon, bless his heart, thought he and his dad could install the system over a weekend for about $500...hmmm, not quite.
during...
We found a guy who would install the system for cheaper than we could buy the materials. Nice guy, somewhat slow, but a great guy. However, when he cut into the water main to install the stop-and-waste (I learned a lot of new terms), it created a leak in a different part of the main, causing a huge problem. Because it's an old house, there was really nothing to do but replace the entire water main...and destroy our backyard.
end result...
Two weeks and $4,500 later
