As a homeowner, there are many plumbing maintenance jobs that you’re going to want to try to complete on your own; however, there are some tasks that should only be handled by a professional because of their years of training and experience. On top of that, some things can only be accomplished with the use of state of the art equipment. Neglecting to contact a professional plumber for these situations could result in expensive and irreversible damages. This article will focus on a few plumbing jobs that you should not attempt on your own.
Firstly, no matter how small the task is, you should never attempt it without a licensed plumber on site. Strict household and insurance policies and QLD laws suggest that it is imperative that you always have a professional accomplish the job for you. You may think, “Surely I can fix a few fixtures on my own,” but according to insurance companies, it wouldn’t be in your best interest to do so. In the future, they may ask for an invoice and you won’t have one.
No matter how sure you are of yourself and the situation, you should never attempt to install a vanity on your own. Installing a vanity involves a lot more than just the casual switch. You will need to remove the current set-up and rearrange the plumbing altogether. A professional plumber is able to do this without any hassle, and they can get the job done quickly.
You should also not attempt to put in a bathtub on your own because of the same reason. Bathtubs can be complex and intricate, and if you aren’t sure exactly how to do this, you’re most likely going to miss something and risk creating a leak that could cause irreversible damages. Other tasks that you shouldn’t attempt on your own because of danger include, but are not limited to, installing a water heater, replacing your home’s piping system, and working on your sewer unit. Avoid the stress and hassle of figuring these things out on your. Get the job done quickly and safely by calling your local plumber today!
