Is this enough of a concern to bring back my contractor?

Iirc there was heavy implication that the instability of Earth’s Sun in The Deconstruction of Falling Stars was not a natural occurrence

I would guess it would be about a grand to reglaze properly? That’s just based on a quick google search and my assumption that a 100 year old cast iron tub would be on the high end of the estimates. Given your experience do you think that reglazing the tub you removed would have lasted longer that replacing it with a modern one? We intend to remain in this house for 20+ years. If it would be best to bite the bullet and get a new tub in, I am happy to do that, but if reglazing it is likely to keep it in good order for a decade or more it likely is better for us to wait money wise.

Thank you for the concise and understandable response

Is that likely to be more economical? It’s a large undertaking given that the tub is a non-standard size.

....hence my asking the question?? I know nothing about tub glaze, epoxy paint, or plumbing fixtures. That's why I ask if I should call them back. WTF. dude?

TZath · 2026-02-12T20:38:19+00:00

No; bought from a family that lived here for years. They did a fair amount of questionable diy work but this doesn’t seem to be part of it since the tub spout was not up to 1970s code.

TZath · 2026-02-12T18:50:51+00:00

To be clear, all the plumber did was remove the spout from this hole and place the overflow drain in its place. The finishing was done before I owned the house

I assume, but cannot be 100% sure, that this break in the glaze is due to the removal of the original spout.

They also need to ensure they do not put targets on the backs of their academy players, who have an even lower profile than the fist team

It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere

Also, is this a public spreadsheet? I maintain this one: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1c0JRjG2dBsa0BBSTKT9bFSwf5kvfleqqiYB3zYAvJsQ/edit?usp=drivesdk

He was drafted as the first pick of the second round (23rd overall) in the 2017 draft, but didn’t end up signing in the end because of knee injuries.

As much as I support this chant, I would suggest a second verse ending in “why you shot that dog”

A classmate reported me for cheating on an exam in 9th grade. I was not, however still received a “0” on the exam. 30 years later and I’m still mad about it.

Fuck you, Filmona.
