Relying on temporary fixes instead of calling a plumber
You may think you’re pretty capable around the house, but those “temporary” fixes have a habit of sticking around much longer than you’d initially intended.
“A homeowner may be able to ‘kludge’ together a fix for a leaky pipe or broken valve, but usually, the damage done over time by leaving such temporary fixes in place will lead to bigger problems,” note the experts at D&F Plumbing, which serves parts of Oregon and Washington state.
“Plumbing systems are more complex than they appear. Smart homeowners trust a professional to fix things the right way.”
