I totally get where you're coming from. I had a similar experience with cheap plumbers – quick to take your money, but the results were far from impressive. Like you, I decided to take matters into my own hands and learn some DIY plumbing skills. Surprisingly, my work is now cleaner, and I've had no leaks. However, when it doesn't work out, I call the best plumber in town. He's also pretty affordable.
