Homeowners state that they had family over and they used the water on the fridge door and it leaked over night and didn’t have a way to shut it off so they called us to fix the issue. Upon arrival I was greeted by homeowner at door where they showed me to the fridge and I could see that the line was ran from the basement/crawl space without a shut off. I offered a couple of solutions and homeowner opted to just fix it and add a shut off behind the fridge. I began by cutting off the main water and drilled the same hole bigger to then drop in 1/2 pex pipe and used an ice maker angle stop on top. Proceed to crawl space and removed the saddle valve and added a 3/4 tee and then a pex adapter and ran pex pipe over to where I previously stick down the other pipe. I connected them properly and then pressed together the copper pipe and then turned the water back on. No leaks or issues were found and the new angle stop works properly and homeowners are satisfied with the service provided.
