lol how did that get there

bringing this over
It was a great time.

I got a call yesterday morning that something had been pouring water all night from my kitchen and that it was flooded and leaking into the basement. Not the best way to wake up with a hangover. It was a pretty miserable drive home.

Turns out the ice maker got stuck with the water valve on and water was just pouring out of it all night...

But yea we got Serv-pro out to the house yesterday to start drying stuff. Hardwoods in the kitchen already look damaged, so they may need to be replaced/refinished, not sure what they can do. Out basement couch is probably a gonner. Water was pouring down right on top of it. Insurance adjuster is supposed to come today...

This is why I think hardwood in kitchens (or anywhere near water sources) is bad. You are probably going to have to replace that.

Hopefully insurance somewhat comes through for you.

Whatever. That's what I want in ours someday. Well not wood, the fake wood. But no ceramic !#@%!@##!%^ tile. That stuff blows especially when you live in a home older than all the people who have posted thus far combined.

Yea, I will agree with that based on recent experience. We have a $1k deductible, so it won't be painless but hopefully it won't be a prolonged battle with them.

There are a lot of laminate products available now that really do look like wood. A good choice for kitchens if you want that look, IMHO. I'm just a tile kind of guy. I like the look of Travertine with the tumbled edges. Just my tastes, though.
