Was washing a beautiful muti million dollar stucco home, when i herd a pop and smoke statring
coming from the electric outlet. I have herd of you guys warning about this and ironically i taped
The othe outlets that had no covers but this one did. The smoke was coming out smelling like burnt rubber and it was making noises and a firey glow was shooting from it. The stucco was burnt around the the box and the home owner told me dont worry about it. I said i am worried for your saftey there could be a fire in the wall. He said dont worry i have insurance keep doing what your doing the house is coming out great.

It scared the hell out of me, but im glad i read about it on the forums. It was a bad recepticale
And i stayed away from it as much as possible. I also was stung by a Bee while washing the front of the front of the house but picked up a 1225 dollar check for 6 hrs work it was well worth it.
Now he wants me back to do the polymeric sand and clean the pavers...ya hoooo.
 
Yeah Ed i thought of you when it happened. The vuy was going to call the fire dept and i told him what they did to the house you worked on, then he said he would call his friend tge electrician..lol
