Default Usual cost in TV to fix irrigation pipe we busted.

We know how much it costs in Cincinnati to fix one, and Sweetie has fixed a couple by himself. The main reason we have busted them is that we are always digging holes to plant something or digging holes to MOVE something that I Graciegirl, think needs moving. You can see that Sweetie is a saint but I digress. (I dig too, but he hauls the bushes around.)

Our latest pipe busting was last night because we were dropping in a few bushes that JoJo gave us from where her pool is happening. We just wonder if anyone has had one of their pipes fixed lately and how much it costs so we don't get ripped off.

Thank you kindly.

Easy to fix. You know where the break is (under your bush). Go to ACE hardware and ask for help. They will sell you a PVC compression connector.. Very easy and save $100.

Gracie,

Here's an older thread on the same topic (if you want to call someone in to do the repair)
