Seeking to hire someone for minor plumbing repairs in my new condo. Also any skills with electrical work for lighting and flooring would be a plus as I need to make some renovations. Send me a PM if so or if you could refer someone. Cheers!

That's what I was thinking. Told him to double check with the HOAel_calvo said:Where I live, you need to use licensed plumbers and electricians for work done in a condo. If you use someone unlicensed, you will be target #1 for the lawsuits and even criminal charges if there is any type of incident even remotely involving the system you had worked on.
I'm a handyman but do not have an electrician's license. If you hire an unlicensed electrician you are an irresponsible fool. Same goes for those of you who think it's OK to DIY major electrical work on your dwelling. Peace of mind that your kid (or the next owner's kid) won't die in a fire from the shoddy work you did is invaluable. FYI a lot of home inspectors miss downright dangerous electrical work.el_calvo said:Where I live, you need to use licensed plumbers and electricians for work done in a condo.

Could be recipe for lawsuit especially when the brown trouts start swimming to the neighbors pond.Autoprax said:Simple stuff you can do yourself.
Do you think Daniel Boone worried about permits when he was wiring up his log cabin?
Life is inherently risky.
Just do a better job than the pros. And let it ride.
But I don't know how, you say.
It's not brain surgery.
The pros got you beat when it comes to efficiency but you should still be able to be effective if you are not a total retard.
Youtube is your friend.
I just learned how to play "On the Way Home" on guitar thanks to the youtube.
I have done building maintenance for 14 years and would say if your mechanically inclined and have the basic tools you can do any of these but the ones I would call a plumber would be grease, (which by the way always dispose of grease and oils in garbage and not sink), tampon, or other fabric clog. These things all require expensive snakes to unclog the drain and best left to experts unless you can get the last two before they go down line to far with a turd hurder like this :rockin:GeoPac said:License required for this?
