“The RoseBouquet”

A plumber has just come to check out the work that is required here as part of the RRAP plan. It only took him about 20 minutes, and he’s gone again. He says it will be expensive to replace my furnace, and the water heater - ho-boy, he said that could go at any time! That should be done as soon as I have the go ahead from the inspector.

I’m thankful he was willing to come look it over, and will send me a quote shortly.

So far I’ve contacted about 17 contractors and plumbers and electricians. I’ve had one general contractor come week before last to measure, etc. for a quote, and now this one plumber. Some give me a reluctant agreement to come, and then like one who called yesterday, they beg off. There is just so much work on NEW housing in our current building boom, that they can turn down work that isn’t appealing. And some people are already booked up for this whole year!

However, God answered prayers in bringing the inspector in the first place, and so I am determined to pray until I get all the quotes or estimates necessary to turn into the inspector, and eventually that the work will be done too. Just watch!
