Default How low do you go?

....when it comes to inspecting beneath sinks. This kitchen sink showed no signs of problems from above. Sometimes it helps to stoop real low. See the rusty crack in the 2 year old enamel sink?

prosperity at any cost, safety first instead of duty first,

Agreed... Nice catch. Pics from last weeks inspect. I couldn't quite get my head underneath with all the stuff in there, so I stuck my camera in, and lo and behold, looky what I found...

Joe,

Nice find. It's hard to believe that a crack that big was not visible from the top side.
