Home Depot has 3 aisles of plumbing parts. What are the chances he: A. I.D.s the leaking part. B. gets it out without breaking something else C. Finds the correct part in the store. D. Has to go back for a special tool. E. breaks something else while he installs the new part. F. the thread are all messed up and it won’t tighten down and it’s leaking more. G. my personal favorite, the bin for the part I need has 4 left in it and they all belong in different bins. grrrr off to Lowes
Clint Eastwood, as Dirty Harry in Magnum Force, “A Man’s Got To Know His Limitations.” I’ll tackle jobs I believe I can manage, but I definitely know my limitations. Thats when I call in the professionals.
I replaced a tap for mum and passing comment was I didn’t want to be a plumber. Someone she worked was surprised because they earn good money, well until she heard what I did for a living (Programmer) – the plumber was on holiday and needed doing quickly.
Best advice I ever got about fixing my own plumbing: only do it while the hardware store is open. Because you WILL break something and will need it immediately…

Don’t do it, Brutus. On what Veeblefester pays you, I’m not sure you could afford a plumber.
