My mother had neighbors doing construction who wanted to use her water and electricity - they ended up stealing electricity for a long time, she bought a new washing machine because she thought hers was broken; it just wasn't getting enough power because of their hookup! I figured it out when popcorn wouldn't pop in the microwave. Turned out it was a city-wide problem.

Thanks Hanskter - yes the side of the house has a garage, but the 1st time I noticed him alone outside - the garage was closed. Hopefully he'll try again when my husband is outside and he's going to ask him why he can't wash his hands at his own house. We'll also look where he lives. Sorry this happened to your mom. I don't think he's going to resort to stealing electricity but thanks for the suggestions. Now that I know he's from the neighborhood it more strange because he has his own house to use water and his hands aren't dirty. I'm fine with a worker in the neighborhood using out water for a legitimate reason but this is odd.
