Only one country where this is legal

That's a decorative vent.
AskARussian
Like putin a scoop vent on a honda from autozone

TheMellowPeril
Oh, you wanted the Deluxe Edition
Karmak
A deluxe edition would be a fancier vent still not hooked up. What you wanted was the Working Edition.

A few days ago there was a post about new home construction needing inspections for this very reason. ⬆️
tinyfootprints
A high-rise apartment building in Dammam, KSA, had all its toilets and sinks installed like this. There were no pipes in the building. @_@

Pisses me off when contractors get lazy and screw up someone's house because they can't be arsed to do it right. We just had basement ...1/2
jridley
flooding because while the plumber did use dielectric unions where the inspector could see, where they were hidden he didn't and it ruptured
BenderSaysNeat
This makes me irrationally angry
TrueLegateDamar
Nah, this is pretty rational anger
teapartyyy
It’s like pockets on female clothing

Hired some travelers, did ya?
rojelioenescabeche
Just had a new roof and multiple/additional vents put on. I really want to check but eaves are like 15’. Attic it is. Eeeeeshh
CitizenSpectre
Bought this house couple years ago. Discovered after a year that they placed a giant return vent cover over drywall without cutting a hole.
Sherpafish
Game of life right there. Gotta pay for that upgraded content.
gotmojomang
Obvious from ground it was slapped on top of roof with no hole
HisBubbliness
"Oh, wait, you wanted it to actually work?"
Hashtagdelta
Found one of these, bathroom exhaust vent, terminated it inside the ceiling then put the fake pipe up top, so frustrating
troywilliams19
I’m pretty sure that vent vented the inside of the vent just fine. Picky people. Signed.,Contractor
RawToastSandwich
It was working, just not as intended

''but i can install it cheaper!''
ScrippyChan
This reminds me of the gardening people my mother hired to take care of our front yard. They came and laid pine straw recently, and just¹
ScrippyChan
put that shit all on top of a bunch of flowering plants in the beds. Completely buried. What the fuck.²
Moescobar
Probably a flipper
BladeRan
As much as I hate the cost, this is the benefit of banks requiring house surveys for mortgages in the uk.
TheFishFace
Banks don't require a thorough survey for most properties
BladeRan
True although we went for a snagging survey too which gave almost too many issues
GeForcen
Ours required a chartered surveyor before any agreement was made. Too many people tried to cheap out, and the report was rejected.
TacoPoweredHelicopter
We get houses inspected here (Canada) they can't find most things.
WrathOfJigglypuff
They don't find half the shit here either. You still legally have to hire them and there is no liability for stuff they don't find.
Mordtziel
Have to wonder if that's the problem with my room. Roof scary though D:

Had a "Handyman" replace mine. It was a power vent. Noticed it wasn't coming on, called him. "Oh yeah I didn't hook it up, I don't do elec"
MBdub210
What did you expect?
RhymingEverything
"Oh great, here's my payment in the form of cowrie shells, I don't do cash."
TheWarHymn
If he isn't licensed for electrician work, he opens himself up for liability if he did hook it up for you.
nikkococo1998
Two wires and a ground. He had to unhook the old one, not like it was a new install. When I hooked it up looks like he yanked it apart
xenocrisis0153
Maybe don't take the job then?

arcgap
Didn't leak though did it?
Itsannamaria
bahahahahahaha ?
SpikeWolfwood
Surprisingly is still did somehow.
MenloPart
We rented a house near Phoenix that used to have a potbelly stove or something. It just had a hole. We kept taping garbage bags over it.
TheWarHymn
Still nailed it on, id they didn't caulk the nail spots right, it will trickle leak.
youcancallmesusanifitmakesyouhappy
Who knows. Of they were dumb enough to just place it on top like that, they were probably dome enough to just screw it straight in no seal
DAUKAR
looks like there is some sealant around the perimeter where the nails are, christ, the guys not a hack!
youcancallmesusanifitmakesyouhappy
Wow fat fingers hit me hard here, my bad for the confusing mistakes
mastamage
I think dome is when you need to say someone is dumber than dumbest, since a dome is an empty shell
WeatherWiz
This is why you don’t pay for cheap labor
dashthefox
Nah this is why you find your landlord's address.
DaveSamsonite
This is why you inspect work before paying
TheWarHymn
That's the thing, most people don't want to bother going up to the roof to check on a roofer's job.
DamnedIfYouDo
I bet this was done cheap and fast!
llortamai
But not good.
tr3kstar
No, you do, you just also pay for the other labor to repair it later.
weenerschnitzels
Procuring of employment right
Brettkeen
Is why America is going to fail and so is capitalism

And then what?
