Hi Guys!
I decided to install edging around the shrub beds on my property instead of just deep edging . Last year I scalped the lawn next to the beds several times when the front wheel of my 21" walk behind went over the edge. Not a difficult job but I never realised that the cable TV line is burried less than 4" below the surface. I cut the line in several spots knocking out my TV and internet service.
I missed the trouble on this site and some important Emails which has caused me further embarassment
. Not to mention the strain that not having TV places on your marriage
.
The cable guy told me I should have called before starting to dig so they could come out and mark the line. I told him the cable should be burried deeper than one shovel's depth. He responded by telling me that the code calls for a minumum of TWO inches.
To add insult to injury they are sending me a bill for $39.95.
Not a great couple of days,
Marc
