Plumbing Upgrade, Part 1

How does nature preserve + natural body products = new plumbing?

Steve works at Big Darby Headwaters Nature Preserve which is right across the road from Mikamy Meadows Natural Products and these folks turned out to have a relative who is also a plumber near where our new house is. Ya just gotta ask a lot of questions!

So our plumber, Ron Spruce, started replacing our old cast iron pipe today. He first cut out the old main waste line:

When I left he was finishing up running a drain for the washing machine:


We are so grateful for having connected with Ron. He's a great guy and an excellent plumber and we can't wait to resume flushing!
