This is a problem I have not hit before and some opinions would be helpful.
An elderly relative is getting a house drain cleared by a plumber, a job that was done several years ago in under 1 1/2 hours.
This time however a different plumber, after working for 2 1/2. hours has said that he has lost a section of the vibrating eel in the drain and the house owner will have to pay for him to dig up the ground to recover it. The plumber has gone to the Council for a drainage plan.
Frankly I have never heard of a section of an eel getting lost in a drain let alone a plumber charging to recover broken/lost equipment.
Comments please.
