Fixed + a tour
Sep. 2nd, 2023 01:49 pmToday's guys were great. They were here at 1:30 and amazed that they didn't really need to install so they were happy to do whatever I wanted. Plus they were pure muscle. They moved that machine around like it was a tinker toy.
Getting appliance slider turned out to be genius. They got it onto the slider easily and then freed the plug that was caught. Then they moved the slider all the way to be back wall and we discovered that there is plenty of room to close the door. So much room, in fact they were able to position it so that the slider hits the wall and gives maybe 6" of room between the machine and the wall. And still plenty of room to close the door.
I could move the machine out of the closet entirely if I needed to. I'm not entirely sure I could move it back alone but probably with help. Best $60 I've spent in a while.

I'll get a thin dark door mat to put over the part of the slider that sticks out.
I'm just delighted. The two guys kept asking to do more. "We didn't do any of the pipes or the drain but it looks like it's all been done." It has.
But, turns out they are soccer fans so they were delighted to see that I could watch the pregame parades. I offered to show them and they jumped at the chance. There's a game tonight and they said they would be in the parade and I told them I would wave.
I need to take a load of garbage down to the dumpster and maybe do a load of laundry! :)
The Mariner game is at 4.

The guys today said they had used them but never thought about using one as a 'floor' for the appliance to live on. They thought it was a good idea and I do, too!
