My husband and I bought an older house a couple of years ago and there have been a number of problems since we bought the place.
One of the first issues was with the roof.
When we had the house inspection completed, we were told that the roof was in decent shape. There were a few repairs here and there, but we did not expect to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a brand new roof because the entire thing needed to be replaced. Even the underlayment was filled with mold and molded. Another problem that recently occurred happened after a huge storm. Our drainage field for the septic system was completely flooded. The paper and septic matter was not properly absorbing into the ground. As the water table rises, the septic system becomes a problem. There was inadequate advantage and we had to contact a local plumbing contractor. We needed a plumbing contractor that was going to be available in an emergency. It was important to find a contractor that could come help us immediately instead of waiting until Monday morning. There were plenty of plumbing contractors out there, but my wife and I chose a skilled and knowledgeable company with great reviews online. The plumbing contractor offered free estimates and after hours calls. They had the septic and during this problem fixed in no time at all. The swimming contractor gave us a few ideas to keep the problem from happening again in the future and they made sure that our drainage system was improved and ready for the next storm.
