Well, I thought I would have a go at changing the washers in my new IP today. How hard can it be? right?
I googled and watched a bit of youtube - all set to go.
Instructional videos gave me a very handy hint - put the plug in the sink in case you drop anythiing in the process.
So, water off at the mains, plug in the sink - pulled everything apart (I'm fast forwarding the 3 trips to bunnings), put the new washers in, put everything back together and then back out to the front yard to turn the water back on.
While I'm out there stop to say hi to nice new neighbour...go inside and find my hallway flooded. Taps on full and plug in the sink.
To make matters worse, my tap still drips!
Time to call a plumber...
