Doing your own repairs

Are you one of those clever nifty people who can just do any repairs around the house with no problem at all? I am hopeless in such things. Any DIY task in the house will be made worse if I even just attempt it!

Recently, the sink in my bathroom was not draining water as it should. Most of you would probably know how to suck or dislodge whatever that’s blocking the water pipe. But me - I had to call in a plumber! The same thing happened when there was some leaking under the kitchen sink. That was even more terrifying, I tell you!

I had to call in a second plumber to properly diagnose the problem because the 1^st stupid plumber told me that it’s probably due to a leaking pipe embedded in the kitchen wall and that they’d have to hack the wall, mend/replace the pipe and then re-plaster & paint the wall!!! Now, isn’t that just terrifying?? Thankfully the 2^nd opinion was correct - it was just one of the water filters under the sink which was causing the leak. Just changed that and my water woes were gone.
