It’s 2019, and everyone is using the internet to learn simple and cheaper ways to complete tasks. While this may work for many small home improvement tasks, plumbing is not a DIY type of project. Plumbing requires professionals with knowledge and expertise for fixing your toilet, sink, bathtub and more.
Here are three great reasons to avoid DIY plumbing:
- Equipment
Plumbing tools and equipment can break your bank account in just a blink of an eye. For example, drain cleaning equipment alone will cost you up to $3,000, and that’s not all you need for drain cleaning. Cables, hand tools and other machines add up in cost for around $5,000 minimum.
- Unresolved Issues Down the Road
Many of us think if we seal a leak up, it’s good to go, but this isn’t necessarily true. A leak can mean something serious and a patch only temporarily fixes an issue. If you keep patching up the leak, it can result in severe future issues.
- Expertise
If you didn’t complete trade school for plumbing, you probably don’t know what an adjustable companion flange ratcheting wrench is or does, and you’re not supposed to. Experts know what this is and how to use it. Lack of knowledge in something you’re not trained for is OK, just don’t try to watch a DIY video on how to get rid of a flood in your home.
