Brought a smile to my face. Luckily I don't ahve any dead people to remove pre-installation, however, the guys who hold our cleaning contract(who I met in the house in the post) DO.<br/><br/>They had a death last year where the guy had some gut problem that had burst, reckoned there was blood everywhere, took them 4 weeks to clean the house. Then there was another one whereby one guy had killed his mate and left him sitting on his couch for a week until the cops picked him up on a parole violation and found his mate on the couch well dead.<br/><br/>Rather them than me!<br/><br/>Thanks for your comments.

Rather them than me!

I am a general home remodeller in the USA. I do a bit of everything. Recently my plumbing froze. Not my water supply lines - since I have them heater taped - but my drain!<br />I put the faucet to drip knowing the weather would get colder while I went away for a few days, but the owner before me who built this hovel all by himself put the undersized, makeshift drains outside the house. There is no venting either! So, the drip slowly froze up, just the way icicles freeze falling off a roof!<br />I'm in the middle of re-modelling this house, so, the re-modeller's house WILL get attention soon. I have no sweatheart to put out of her kitchen, or I'm afraid I'd be without one, or both by now.<br />Your blog reminds me of that show looking into what it's like for a cleaning contractor in New Orleans, cleaning up after the dead who died - by natural causes or otherwise - in their homes.
