Is my area the only one that home owners feel that the best fix to a broken sewer line is duct tape.
This has been the 5th home I have inspected with duct tape repairing the sewer line www.tristatehomeinspections.org www.tristateenergyinspections.com If you always do what you always did you will always get what you always got. |

Hey, LeRoy. Don't worry. You're not alone. Out here we also use it for electrical installations:

with all due respect, no one knows if there is a leak under the duct tape.
