TED’S HOME IMPROVEMENT TIP #001 – PLUMBING

by Bill Bettwy

Plumbing is the ultimate way to ruin a Saturday. And I say “Saturday” so then that way you can go to church on Sunday and ask for forgiveness for all of the “name” dropping that is going to occur during your plumbing adventure.  

I mean a leaky faucet, toilet, or hose all seem at one point relatively easy to fix….right?  Nope.  Either rusty parts that won’t come loose or trying to get into impossible places to fit a wrench, plumbing is easily the most aggravating freakin’ thing on any man’s honey-do list.  BUT….BUT there is one thing you CAN do to try and ease some of the pain.

TIP:  Remember to SAVE THE RECEIPT when you pick up your plumbing parts, because there are over 10 million different sizes of everything and if you don’t have the broken part with you to match it up, YOU WILL BE GOING BACK.
