    Poo under house

    Some sort of sewage leak and now a river of effluence under the house in the crawl space. Need to get it cleaned out before the scope. Just received an hudge estimate and want to get another.

    Rontele offered to felch it out but the straws from his Orange Julius franchise are a bit small. Anyone in the Seattle area have a reco for a poo sucking company? Apparently this service isnt tied into plumbing services, more specialty.

    In this crazy, mixed-up world of ours, it's heartening to know that TGR memes can always be counted on.

    Buy a cheap shop vac that you can ditch when you're done, and do the job yourself?

    This is the kind of task for which the concept of paying others to do it was invented.

    It's his own shit. And he doesn't have to touch it if he's careful.

    You only live there like 2 weeks before you are off to the next time share, no? Make the next jet setter clean it up.

    In my book this doesn't make any material difference to the fact it's still....... shit.

    Wholeheartedly with the Brit on this one.

    There are companies that specialize in cleaning up the nasty. I'm sure these guys would clean it.

    edit: I wonder what "MSDS" is?

    My dad owns a plumbing company that I work for in the summers. I am Canadian but I will come down from whistler and suck it up (shop vac is your responsibility) for a fair(fair to you and me) amount of cash. I'm used to it and need cash for a new beacon shovel and probee.

    pfft, paying other people to do shit you don't want to do is one of the main reasons for money.

    MSDS usually stands for Material Safety Data Sheet. My guess is they can analyze and/or provide sheets for all sort of harmful fluids.

    It has things like VOC ratings, who to call if you ingest it, what's actually in it, what it might be volatile with (air/water).

    Thanks for the reco Timeo, I'll try those guys out.

    I may go shop vac route if I dont hear a reasonable number soon. Look for a free shop vac in gear swap in a week or so.

    And Dave, thanks for the offer but I will likely hire someone or do it myself, but who knows. I could easily see paying gas and a gnote but that may be getting ahead of things. Pining through insurance policy stuff tonight. Maintenance fees don't cover shit.

    I'm interested to know what kind of pipes you have and how old they are.
