I am quite sure all of the plumbers and plumbing companies are very aware of their policies regarding on call and after hours calls. The fact that it was during the holidays and no one wants to work also factors into this equation. It is very hard to find anyone in this town to work on mobile homes when something goes wrong. Most of the time, you will probably wind up with a "do-it-yourself" job, especially where the plumbing is concerned. Then there's the problem of finding someone in town who carries plumbing supplies for mobile homes. ACE Hardware carried all the necessary stuff when it was open in Demopolis, but they were the only one that did. Now they're gone. You just about have to go to Meridian or Tuscaloosa to get plumbing supplies for mobile homes now.

BammaFats, I'm suprised you didn't check with your neighbor across the street to see if he would hire out to fix your problem. He does plumbing work on the side for a reasonable price and is always looking to pick up some easy pocket change.
