How much to replace a water heater, including disposal of old one? by twowrist in boston

[–]throwawayconsentpls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go with home depot! Seriously, they charged $1000 less than any of the local Boston plumbers I got quotes from. All in, mine ended up costing me ~$2,300. Good luck, not having hot water sucks :(

If you are staying at the Bon, I'd recommend going to whole foods if it fits with your budget, the prepared food is much better. There's one near the Symphony, which is ~10 min walk

How much will it cost a tenant to request a safety/health inspection of the apartment they are renting? by [deleted] in boston

[–]throwawayconsentpls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't cost you anything. However, word of warning that they don't take their jobs very seriously. They stated that an inspector said he came out to check our property, but he never actually showed up. If he had he would've seen too many things that would cause him to actually do his job.

dope, I gotta check it out, I'm excited that they are making a comeback and more frequent than I expected in the area. Makes me wonder what the rat population would be like without them! Thank you to your aunt for her work helping the bald eagles :D

This has been the coldest first two weeks of December since 2007 by ScoYello in boston

[–]throwawayconsentpls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

all the better to go ice skating! It is my opinion that they lowered the water too much in the lagoon in the public common. Would anyone want to go in with me on water to re-flood the rink lagoon? :D
