Why is it that nothing can ever be simple? Absolutely nothing! Last week the UGI guys came and jack hammered
the pavement in order to replace it.
Okay, fine. Been waiting MONTHS
for them to show up.
However, they left it torn up all weekend. Which meant my bottom step, which had been
repaired nicely and firmly about a year ago, was left unsupported. Yep, you guessed it. It cracked and is now about to crumble again.
They came Monday and did sidewalk. They filled in a tiny bit beneath my
step. Not the whole thing. Not under the corner below the crack. And not very well in the portion they did
patch haphazardly.
This morning as I was off to do errands the gentlemen were
there finishing up. So I asked them
about my step. Instantly I was informed
it’s not their problem, it had been patched before. Well, yes, it had been. But until they messed with it last week it
was just fine. Sturdy, uncracked and
going to stay that way. Now, as it is,
if it makes it until winter water will get in, freeze and expand and then the
whole corner will break off.
We left it this morning with the worker bees needing to
consult their supervisor. Yeah, as
expected no one showed up the rest of the day.
Tomorrow I will call UGI and argue some more.
As I asked why can nothing ever be simple?
