Is there even enough master plumbers in Worcester County? Even if you have a master plumber's license that last thing most want to do is replace a faucet when someone else could do the job just as well.<br /><br />6:19<br />They said simple plumbing jobs. I doubt Harry Homeowner would replace a gas water heater.

A water heater is above the floor and outside the wall BUT:<br /> If it is a gas water heater and you have a leak BOOM.<br /> If it is not vented properly CARBON MONOXIDE (hope you still remember that!)<br /> If not wired properly FIRE.<br /> If no temp/pressure relief valve BOOM.<br /> If water piping not done correctly FLOOD.<br /> If the temp not set properly LEGIONARIES DISEASE.<br /> etc.<br />A kitchen sink is above the floor and outside the wall BUT:<br /> If you don't install a proper trap DEAD.<br /> If not connected properly FLOOD.<br /><br />etc. etc. etc.<br /><br />In history, the Plumber has saved more lives than doctors so do you really think someone with no training should be entrusted with other peoples lives !!! <br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-56000220582715023692016-09-30T16:53:21.768-04:002016-09-30T16:53:21.768-04:00I read on of the comments the last time this artic...I read on of the comments the last time this article was posted on SBYnews about all of the electricians that have basically boycotted OC.

Does anyone believe that anytime an OC hotel has to replace a bathroom fixture that they pull a permit and have an inspection done?

A homeowner can repair any exposed pipe appliance a Home Improvement Contractor can without any permits at all; toilet, sink,water heater, or carmaker hookup. Anything inside the walls needs a permit and a license. <br />Let's get simple!stevenoreply@blogger.com
