Common Problems Arising From DIY Plumbing Repairs
Because many plumbers in Newport News Va charge an arm and a leg for their services, homeowners often try to save money by doing the work required to fix the problem(s) themselves. For the seasoned HVAC homeowner, it sometimes makes sense to do the work themselves. However, the average person trying their hand at DIY repairs will run into many problems.
You may have tried your knack at DIY plumbing Hampton Va. For example:
- You had a leaky faucet, and you used your handy skills to replace it.
- You may have been skilled enough to take apart the faucet and go to your hardware store and replace the part.
- If you had a clog in your sink you may have poured a bottle of Drano down the drain, and your sink was magically unclogged.
If you have done one or more of these “layman” procedures…congratulations! You have more courage than most homeowners.

- cause a burst pipe by trying to tighten or loosen fasteners while doing plumbing repairs
- damage the pipes in your sink and toilet, or even the main plumbing line, by using drain cleaners too often
- damage perfectly fine piping by misattributing a leaking roof to leaking piping
- cause an increase in your water bill by creating new leaking pipes
