Most plumbers and electricians just need to do it.

After moving into a new home in Yilan, we encountered water and electricity problems. The original owner shirked responsibility and hired a plumber whose workmanship was rough and the connections were improper, resulting in water seepage. Repairs were repeated but to no avail. I ended up doing the repairs myself and improving the design to avoid future pipe burst risks. I lamented the uneven quality and disappointing low professionalism in the plumbing and electrical industry, and it would be better to do it myself.

Extend the drain pipe yourself, it’s easy and saves money!

It is actually very simple to extend the drain pipe, and you can save the cost of a technician by doing it yourself. Prepare a drainage pipe with a diameter similar to the original pipe, a slightly smaller PVC bridge pipe, hard adhesive and electric fire cloth. The steps include measuring and cutting, joining pipes, applying glue, letting them dry and sealing them. The whole process takes about five minutes, and you can use it after the glue dries. Not only can it save money, but it can also improve DIY skills and solve drainage problems during home appliance installation.

Waterproofing

After buying and selling a used house, waterproofing is particularly important, especially in water-logging areas such as rooftop balconies. Although there is a five-year civil law warranty against water leakage, if problems occur, repairs may damage the structure and litigation will be time-consuming. Common waterproofing materials include PU, waterproof blanket and elastic cement, among which elastic cement is cheap and ductile. The cost of hiring workers to carry out the work is high, mainly due to the shift fee and the time cost calculated based on the number of coating layers. If the area is small, you can operate it yourself and save unnecessary expenses.
