A French drain is a trench covered with gravel or rock that redirects surface and groundwater away from an area. Guy from Mass named French about Farm Drainage in the 1800s.
Arkady, you are right about John Hlad. At least cost wise. But I really like the man and I like the young guy that works for him. And that guy helped me through a lot more serious plumbing issues than changing toilet guts (he even did work for me when I was in BH way back) so I’ll get him to go through a few other issues I have, so I won’t feel completely hosed. I am aiming for more independence from these guys though. I’ll get there.
Is French drain is a euphemism for a happy ending in Paris?
ET, how about combining a couple of those names:
Croth Snatcher?
Assfruit?

Asshat Texpert has a good ring to it.
There’s a Hong Kong Dragonboat Festival in Flushing Meadow Park in August.
Arkady, what IS a French drain? I certainly hope it is more fun than a terlet.
Go for Crumb Snatcher….
TextperV,
Yeah, “Precious”

dona – You may need a french drain, not a plumber.
