This condo was built in 1979 so that makes it 44 years old. I don’t think they ever changed the electrical or plumbing ever since because this is vintage stuff.
The new light switches are made in China so this won’t last for 44 years.
I got an estimate to change all the electrical light switches and outlets and they electric company quoted me $1000. The parts only costed me $40 so I saved a lot of money today.
Then I had time to do the plumbing too. I got an estimate of $950 to change the water valves for the condo. The parts costed me only $60. I can’t believe how much labor these guys charge! Crazy! I literally saved almost $2000 today.
I took me all afternoon so I thought I’d treat myself to an ice cold Kirin draft beer. Cheers to saving a lot of money today!
