Come on now Joe, buying SFRs and doing heart surgery aren't even in the same universe when it comes to complexity, risk, and severity of failure. 

I discovered my newest rental has a crack in the fiberglass (plastic?)

A good relationship is like a good marriage,,a bad one is worse.Just a suggestion,,instead of 'repairing' that cast stack you might make a bigger project and replace it all with plastic.

Next time, work on clear instructions for your vendor: control the dust by covering vents, taping up plastic film at the door to the renovated room, and make them include cleanup in their fixed bid. 

for what it's worth, I have seen his yard signs around town in various low income areas.His yard signs are corrugated plastic.

Plastic plumbing is actually more durable than chrome.

Didn't do it though because even after they started allowing eye surgery, my vision was still double outside of the limits.

Three surgeries later, we started to notice he was getting loopy - perhaps from all the medication.

Husbands Dr ordered MRI and Xray and ultra sounds, and the $360 copays went on plastic and it dropped my TU by 77 points.
