:whoo::mjcry:

man, so I had the city put in a water meter a couple weeks ago, and they put this big ass hole in my drywall, which was the ONLY way it would fit. then of course, they ain't gonna pay for that repair, and I was just down the street talking to the cat that built my house, and cuz of the weird size of the whole and that meter is sticking out, I'm looking at like $300 just to fix it cuz it has to be framed, drywalled, and painted.

City or Contractor...

If contractor you stuck as they have you sign off on damage papers. If the city then you have like a 2% chance of recouping:heh:

man the city did that shyt. I didn't have a hole in my wall prior. the fukking water meter is wider than the space between the drywall and the foundation, so it sticks out. it was either let the city cut a hole in my wall to get a water meter or get stuck paying like 3 times as much for water and have the rates increase at an exponential rate.

So you certain it was the city & not the contractors they hire? If so give 311 or they meter department a call. Let them know. Like I said tho it's a very very slim chance anything gets done tho

Edit: They refused to place it in the vault?

it shouldn't stick. the temp is 34, so we are above freezing.

Breh that shyt stuck in NWI. Been up here all week and they got it good over that way. Was in Gary earlier today and they got plenty of snow still on the streets. To this GA nikka that shyt look like a blizzard. Some parts of Merriville look like it still ain't been plowed. But back where I am now on the Northside there isn't shyt on the ground. Y'all nikkas up here got some crazy ass weather
