So apparently, the house I bought last year are full of flaws that the previous owners didn't notice (or didn't bother to do anything about), which are now making their full present. I'm obviously overdue on the next payment on my huge karma debt, for some reason. In January the main circuit went down, and blew up my TV, central vacuum cleaner, stove and ventilation with it. All of this was finally repaired last week (sans the new TV). So this week, it was the bathrooms turn to play tricks on me. There isn't much in this world that is more fun than the good old water damage. And, just as en extra bonus, old Karma found it amusing to lead the water out from the first floor bathroom and let it drip down from the ceiling in the ground floor living room. Yeah!
And of course, as iceing on the cake, every carpenter and plumber in the area are on holiday just now. Here are some snapshots of my search for the source of the leak. It's been a fun week.
I wonder what old Karma has up her sleeve for me next time. Fire? Ants? Burglars?

Damn bro - that's some serious suction! So sorry for y'all. I couldn't make out exactly where that is - is it just next to the staircase? Does this mean that you've only got one functional bathroom now?
What realtor did y'all use again? Hope he or she didn't tell you that the previous owner only used the house when she was not at church
So final conclusion: This is an easy and cheap fix. It's some minor modifications under the door/ door frame that need to be done. But it's freaking annoying that the builders didn't to this in the first place. They should have, if they had followed the regulations!
Muy bueno - that the damages are minor, I mean. Still sucks that the builders flipped the bird at the regulations though.
You've had more than enough trouble with your new house fo' sho'.
There was no detectable damage to the Dam or other SFPUC pipelines and facilities in the Sunol Valley.water damage
