What a disastrous day. Started cleaning the gutters and was going to use the hose to blast out any residue. Turn on the water, nothing coming out.
Went to disconnect the hose from the house and all of a sudden water started gushing out so I go into the basement to find the shutoff valve. Couldn’t find it anywhere…spent over an hour and a half, so water was just gushing out. Called neighbors, realtor, tried turning off every valve I could find.
finally we had to call non-emergency fire. They came and found out that we couldn’t find the valve because there was none so they grabbed something to get it shut off.
Got a plumber to come and get a valve on there and replace the outside faucet which we had had some leaking issues with.
I was starting to feel stupid not being able to find a shutoff valve…they’re not hard to find but there was no freaking valve on the stupid pipe
