Depending on your level of knowledge and experience, you may be comfortable taking on basic plumbing jobs around your home. This can range from unclogging a sink to setting a toilet.

However, you don’t want to tackle a job unless you are 100 percent confident in what you are doing.

Here are several situations in which it makes good sense to call a plumber:

• You have no clue what’s going on. If you’re unable to diagnose the issue you need to seek professional assistance. From there, you’ll have a better clue of what’s going on and how to address the issue.
• You can cause more harm than good. With plumbing, one mishap can immediately lead to additional concern. For example, a leaking pipe that’s not properly repaired can cause water damage to your home.
• You want peace of mind. Even if you have some knowledge, tackling a DIY plumbing project may leave you with unanswered questions. If you want peace of mind, call in a professional plumber who can fix your issue once and for all.

These are not the only situations in which you should consider calling a plumber, but they should give you a better idea of when it makes sense to bring in a pro.
