I had my faucet installed by a plumber, but it's still leaking. What should I do? You have to call the plumber again! This is an emergency after all. The plumber should fix it in no time.
If he doesn't seem to care about the leak though, you might be tempted to tell him that if he doesn't fix your faucet properly this time round, you'll never use his service again. Make sure you're willing to keep that promise, because if there is only one plumber in town (or country), then you won't be able to get any services from anyone else anyway. He will probably care more once he knows what's at stake for him.
By the way, plumbers fix the faucets for a living. They're professionals at it. All you need to do is tell him about your problem and explain the best ways of fixing it (by referring to this article on how I fixed my leaky faucet).
If he's not busy doing any other plumbing jobs right now, he should be able to get your faucet working properly in no time!
If you're still worried that he'll do a bad job or that he'll charge you an exorbitant amount, ask him to give you some references.
The plumber can also use his spare time while waiting for the faucet parts to arrive by fixing other plumbing problems around your house. This would be far more beneficial for all parties involved than just standing around.
Hopefully everything will work out this time round - but if it doesn't, don't worry! There are plenty of other ways to fix the leaky faucets. You might want to write about these in your next post.
How many times have you had a plumber come over and ask, "What did you break this time?" And then tried to convince them that it wasn't your fault only for them to just shrug their shoulders and get on with the job anyway? If this has happened more than once then chances are that you're guilty of breaking things without realizing It might sound unbelievable, but sometimes all it takes for something to go wrong is a few drops of water sprinkled on the wrong part of a device.
How did you manage to break something without noticing? You can blame it on a few drops of water from your faucet for all I care, but here are some pointers that might help you avoid making this mistake in the future:
- If it runs, then stop using it until someone else fixes it.
- Don't get into something if there's any chance that you'll be distracted while doing so. Watching TV while eating dinner is a good example. The temptation to change what's playing might make you reach out and touch something without realizing it. This causes anything from a small dent or scratch to a chain reaction where everything collides with each other and becomes unusable.
You could install a sensor in your house that makes an alarm sound if it detects any signs of movement when something should not be moving. This will hopefully make you aware of what's going on even if you are distracted.
Sometimes putting sensors everywhere might seem like overkill, so why not just put water sensors in the place where you think they'd be most useful? For example, I have two faucets upstairs at home and I've heard about plumbers charging exorbitant amounts just to call them for leaky faucet repairs. Since there are several things at risk here (including my phone bill), this would be an ideal thing to protect with sensors.
They'll also come in handy when you're feeling paranoid and want to avoid touching anything that might be at risk of breaking. You can just stand behind your sensor and everything else will be safe from harm!
There's plenty you can do with sensors apart from making sure no water gets anywhere near your faucets. For example, they can tell if anyone is home or not by how much movement there is in the house. This would help plumbers know if they should be turning up or not. If you've ever had a problem with your doorbell, then you'll know what I mean.
The worst part about this is when they stop working but tell you that everything's fine by making noises at random intervals. You can put a sensor in the wiring to solve this by telling you exactly when it goes off. This way you'll know that at least one of your sensors is working properly, even if they all go out.
