As of yet, I haven't had the repairs done, so I can't speak for any of the suggestions. ----------replies start here---------------- From: Dennis J. Ciplickas Our landlady uses South Side Plumbing (I don't know the number but they're in the book). They have always come on emergency calls for us and seem to have stopped all the leaks on the first try (like the time the apartment above mine was pouring water into my clothes closet). Can't vouch for their rates, though. Haven't been exposed to anyone but them, and my landlady has always gotten the bill directly. -Dennis --------------- Sender: hsmoliar@db1.speech.cs.cmu.edu My furnace man is great--retired from a company, he does it himself.

I've never had a problem wrt them, nor an unreasonable bill. We've used them mostly for cleaning, but they've also done some plumbing, et cetera. ---------------- From: Dorothea Marsh Jennifer: Try Wil Colon, he's CMU employee, very good, won't rip you off. x8-2912 or better still, contact his wife who will relay the message her name is Michelle x8-3664.
