I'm assuming they goofed somewhere along the way.
- Example 1: : They switched a fitting that wasn't supposed to be touched/meant to be tampered with/intended for modification. Now my washing machine is spouting water/gushing out liquid/overflowing.
- Example 2: : They left tools behind/forgot essential parts/failed to remove debris, creating a bigger mess/causing further complications/leading to additional problems. Now I have broken fixtures on top of the original issue.
