SAVE ON PLUMBING REPAIRS
November 25th 2011 18:36
Rather than call a plumber in for an expensive house call,
try to diagnose the problem on your own first. A good way
to learn about basic plumbing repairs is to build a home
library of plumbing books.
There are many good inexpensive plumbing repair books
currently available. Two excellent ones are:
--"The Plumber's Troubleshooting Guide" written by
master plumber, R.Dodge Woodson.
--"Do-It-Yourself Plumbing" by Max Alth.
Books like these contain a wealth of practical tips for
solving a wide variety of plumbing problems. There are
also a plethora of handyman oriented magazines with
plumbing sections to clip and save not to mention the
various web sites devoted to plumbing.
If after pinpointing the cause of a plumbing problem you feel
you don't have the necessary skills--soldering for instance--
it's best to call in a pro. But, you have saved the plumber
billable time by identifying the cause and location of the problem
which will be reflected on your bill.
It never hurts to keep adding to your personal plumbing reference
library. As your problem-solving waterworks skills improve you will
feel more confident tackling more difficult plumbing problems in
the future.
