You know you’re in trouble when the HVAC guy shows up to fix your leaky sink and starts asking for duct tape. I had a buddy who tried that once; he ended up getting more water on the floor than in the pipes. Lesson learned: professionals have their specialties for a reason.
, I feel that! I once had an HVAC guy show up with a caulk gun instead of plumbing tape — let’s just say my bathroom had a waterfall effect that day.
I once had a guy try to fix my sink with a wrench he clearly just pulled out of his toolbox without checking if it was the right size. Let’s just say it turned into an impromptu fountain. @jgrant47, guess we should stick to the pros who know their stuff.
It really drives me nuts when the wrong pro shows up for the job! One time, I had an HVAC guy fix a leaky faucet, and he almost flooded my kitchen with his ‘quick fix.’ calling a plumber first saved me from a disaster. Anyone else had a surprise when a pro showed up with the wrong tools?
