I am not saying that I think double sided tape was the right fix for that issue, BUT I have worked in commercial manufacturing and depending on the type/quality of the tape it is fully acceptable to use double sided tape to build/repair/manufacture things; especially interior items.

Probably no main for the unit, likely stacked baths and kitchens over every floor, but at least should replace all the shutoffs at each fixture in the unit next scheduled time it's out... it's that or freeze the pipe for the repair, or I suppose for Handman I think we're taking sawzall, shark bite valve, and a wet suit 😅

The beauty of living in the SE is our home on 5 acres costs less than half that and a side benefit of I don't live there. Plus, when I hear gun fire, I don't worry about it. It may be me out target practicing the next time you hear shots fired. I do not live in a gun free zone. 😁

[@Jeremiahrl]

The beauty of living in the city is being surrounded and exposed to different people and cultures. And also the extreme convenience of having everything you need within walking distance. It sure beats country/small town living. Not enough exposure/experience will lead to fear and assumptions. Which is what I pick up for you comment here. A visit to a city is certainly not comparable to living in it.

[@motherfudger6664]

I was a city dweller for a long time and am now in a smaller nearby city, pretty much a mixture of urban/suburban/rural in the immediate area. I don't miss so many things about being in major cities and it's nice working on people's houses without having a million crackheads up your ass every second, but I could never do living far out in the middle of nowhere as I still need civilization and culture and close proximity to stuff happening, etc. But god I sure do love not having to worry about moving my car for street sweepers.

Recently I did a kitchen remodel and experienced a similar problem because the customer purchased a deep sink. As you know the kitchen was nearly 90% finished.
