I've noticed over the years that only the people who are true professionals and confident in their abilities are able to publicly admit when things go wrong and demonstrate how to fix them. My respect for a guy at work sky-rocketed after he did a similar thing. Kudos.

From personal experience had a work acquaintance die from having a grinding blade break off an hit him in his femoral artery. He bled out before he could get help.

Hey Jeff, the other day I had to change out my garbage disposal unit because the old one had sprung a slow leak (it was 12 years old). Overall it was a simple process, but I would have probably called a plumber to do the work for me in the time before I found your channel and watched your plumbing videos. So, thanks for helping me save money!

both are great. return on investment depends on the house's ability to get the value of custom work. not every area can support a custom shower. but if you diy it then it always returns on investment. Cheers!

If you crack your concrete counter top like this, you throw it out, and you restart. Look into GFRC mix and don’t let this happen again. There is a solution out there that would prevent this.
