Why You Should Call the Professionals and Not Do Plumbing Yourself

Ever thought to fix broken pipes yourself? Of course, you can do it on your own! But without proper knowledge, you might buy the wrong materials, damage the toilet bowl by accident, or move a pipe that you’re not supposed to move. Even when you think you’re perfectly capable, it’s better to just call for plumbing services.

Why call a plumbing service?

Before anything else it is important to know the difference between a plumber and a plumbing contractor. The former handles repairs of the plumbing system, like getting rid of a toilet bowl choke and repairing leaking or bursting pipes. The latter, on the other hand, can do the tasks of a plumber but can also do other complex jobs. To install a sink, constructing the waste disposal system, even maintenance and repair are among the things that can be done by a contractor.

For one, you may find instructions in the internet on how to fix a faucet, or install water heaters, or how to cover a leaking pipe. You can certainly do all of this on your own. But, even though there are instructions on the internet, the problems you may face or the side-effects of what you are doing wrong are not clearly presented at all. The difference between you and the best plumbing workmen is that they know the ins and outs of the plumbing system like the back of their hand. Compared to seeing instructions online, they have done these tasks many times in actuality and with genuine practice.

Cheap plumbers aren’t very hard to come by as well. Whether you need an urgent servicing of toilet bowl or just want to reduce the plumbing cost, you can easily get a service from local contractors here in Singapore. But, do ensure that they are licensed and certified plumbers to guarantee immediate and quality results.

Licensed plumbers

A PUB licensed plumber in Singapore provides professional services such as:
• Bathroom plumbing – fix toilet bowl, toilet leak, etc.;
• Kitchen plumbing – fix clogged kitchen sink, damaged faucet, etc.;
• Cleaning and ventilating the pipe;
• And many more.

For an HDB flat, calling an HDB plumbing contractor should be ideal because they can easily be reached as they are already associated with the Housing and Development Board. They are also reliable and very much capable of getting the job done.

24/7 emergency services

There are always times when a pipe, toilet, or faucet becomes damaged in the middle of the night. A 24 hours plumber will be your hero (actually the best and only option you may have) when disaster strikes at nighttime. They are most likely licensed plumbers so you don’t really have to worry about them making mistakes.

Having a reliable plumber, even at the dead of night, will take a heavy burden off you shoulder. Especially if you’ve been facing a lot of problems with your plumbing system, knowing that there is an emergency plumber that you can call at any time of the day will save you from all the worry.

If you think hard about it, you can say that plumbing services are very practical for our lives. We may overlook it, but sometimes we even get more problems regarding our plumbing system more than we get sick ourselves. So, never hesitate to call for a plumber, they are there for a reason!
