My Beautiful DR Horton Leak

Check out my the pics of the great leak. Turns out the builder put a nail right through the pipe and here's the mess we are dealing with! But of course DR Horton is presently doing nothing about it!!

The first picture is of the mold we found under the kitchen cabinets. The second picture is the damage on the common wall after we took off the sheet rock. This is the side the nail was put in. You would think that if they were going to put particle board under the sheet rock to protect the pipe then maybe they would have used shorter nails??!


Here's the pipe the way the plumber found it. Nope, he didn't cut it..it was like this.


And oh, looky here...a nail right through the pipe!!


This is a containment that they have set around both sides to suck all of the moisture out over the next day or two. The hoses are then put into the bucket to collect the water that is drawn out.


This last picture is of the water we found this morning at 6am. The machines have only been working since 2pm yesterday. I was shocked at how much was in there!!
