I will admit that I am pretty helpless with certain aspects of home repair.
I am not really good at handling anything plumbing related.
I can tile a floor all day. I can gut a room and paint it. When it comes to moving pipes or adding them, no way. I am not even good with simple hooking up. When I remodeled my bathroom I had to hire everything out. I want new shower guts and I didn’t think I could handle it. I had the local plumber change the shower head and valve. He also put in a new toilet and installed my sink vanity. The guy kept telling me that everything was quite simple. He showed me how he easily added a new wax ring and drilled down the toilet. He showed me that the shower pieces can just screw in. The vanity just required a bit of hooking up. The most difficulty he had was with my pop up drain on the new sink. Overall it took him maybe an hour. I was so impressed with him. I kept his number and assured him that I would be calling again in the future. I am a hopeless student. No way would I feel comfortable handling any of that plumbing work that he did. I just don’t have the mind for it. I also hate to potentially make a major repair when I would hire someone to do it. The guy hardly charged me anything and I now know that everything is installed perfectly. It was worth every penny getting him into my house.
