You're welcome
Just my personal opinion, but based on the plumbing work my dad has done -- and he is not a plumber -- most fixes are relatively easy. It's just that sometimes you need a tool that only plumbers have. However, I myself have bought plumber tools at Home Depot for $30 or less, like when I wasn't paying attention and flushed paper towels down the toilet. Or, when my shower drain was clogged with hair, I bought draino. Much better than spending $200+ on a plumber or waiting for one to arrive when my dad needed a new hot water heater installed.
Also, another thing you could do -- and I just thought of this -- is ask Home Depot guys for assistance on what you want to do. The people in the plumbing, lighting, etc departments are pretty knowledgeable. They want to sell you things in the store, rather than call one of their own plumbers, electricians, etc. because they are affiliated, not actual plumbers hired by the store. But yes, you can get plumbers etc for a discount at Home Depot. We got a plumber from them that came in 24 hours.
