Im going to be in soooo much trouble for posting this

PSA for plumbers everywhere: Do NOT spill PVC primer down the leg of your shorts. 😅

Picture this: sitting under a house doing drainage, minding your own business… when suddenly the PVC primer bottle tips and runs straight down the leg of your shorts. No big deal, right?

Wrong.

About 10 seconds later it felt like someone had lit a match under the family jewels. 🔥

Cue a fully grown plumber sprinting out from under the house like his life depended on it, dropping his pants in the yard trying to wipe the stuff off before it dissolved anything important.

Desperate times called for desperate measures… which ended with him standing there with his testicles under the hose tap like a burnt sausage at a Bunnings BBQ. 🚿🌭

Lesson learned:
1. Keep the primer upright.
2. Wear longer shorts.
3. Always know where the nearest hose tap is.

Plumbing might be a tough trade… but PVC primer is tougher.

🏠 Landlords — are you paying too much for plumbing?

Most real estates or trades add mark-ups to every plumbing invoice for rentals.
That means you could be paying hundreds more than you should… for the exact same work.

At 3rd Generation Plumbing, we work directly with landlords — no middle-man, no inflated prices, no nonsense.

✔ Same licensed plumber
✔ Same quality workmanship
✔ Lower cost
✔ Faster response
✔ You stay in control

If you own a rental property, you don’t have to accept the agent’s expensive plumbing contractor.

📞 Call 3rd Generation Plumbing and put the money back in your pocket.
