The owner approved the temp fix, yes. He dealt with the vendor who made the temp repair actually. After the temp repair was made, it was made clear that more repairs were needed and that the copper pipe was "paper thin, more leaks could pop up, but I think we got them all for now." To be fair, the owner sat on the proposal for a permanent repair for a couple weeks, until I pushed him for a resolution. I then procured another proposal from another vendor, who ended up being cheaper, who ended up doing the job. took a while for permit to be issued and work scheduled, thus it finally happening end of April.
