More information would be helpful. Are you renting a whole house? One unit in a two unit building? Do other units have water? Are both the kitchen and bath faucets not working?
When our pipes froze, I could tell it happened somewhere between the kitchen and upstairs bathroom. Used a heat gun on the tile along the wall. It eventually thawed. Lucky it didn’t burst.
To thaw the pipes you need to warm them up. Open cabinets under the sink and bath vanity. If you have a space heater or can borrow it, use it next to the wall closet to where you think the pipes are frozen. Keep the taps open when doing this so you’ll know if it’s working.
If you use a heat gun, don’t keep it pointed at a painted surface. It will bubble and strip the paint.

Are you saying that the cyclist’s civil suit against the city does have merit? Don’t get me wrong- I’m anti-Degise, but I don’t see how that makes sense.
The only loser in that scenario would be taxpayers, who would ultimately foot the bill for any settlement paid out by the city.
His lawsuit against Degise personally makes a lot more sense.

Reply to Best gym in jersey city? I just bought a place in communipaw and have been using my apartment complexes gym but can't anymore. any recommendations? by Aggravating_Sand352
If your work has a gym and membership is <$100 I'd use that gym unless you work from home.
I personally use Lifetime in One Wall Street and couldn't be happier.

Unfortunately I do not have much accessible exposed pipe to work with. Tomorrow I’ll likely do that after hunting any exposed pipe down.
Thanks for your reply

Open kitchen cabinets if they are against an exterior wall - will help to keep it warm inside there!

"City spokeswoman Kimberly Wallace-Scalcione told The Jersey Journal Friday the mayor would have no comment because of possible litigation, but she wasn’t shy about the potential lawsuit against the city, saying it would have “no merit.”"
My eyes just rolled so far back in my head I am now looking at the back of my skull from the inside.

Lol there's no chance that Mrs. Hit & Run gets an elected office again. Appointed, sure, but no way she gets a majority of votes.

Yes you are correct. It's ridiculous that the PATH stops running at 2 am.

Oh wow...sounds like a roller coaster ride. Seems to have sorta kinda worked out in the end. But it's all perspective I guess, and what times we're living in. Thanks for sharing!
