 Do It Yourself

These days with the ease of use and ease of access to the internet people are looking online for tips, tricks and step-by-step instructions to learn a new skill or find a quick way to fix a problem. I, Sarah, look for new craft or sewing projects, but it seams (see what I did there?) people aren't afraid to try and learn how to be a plumber. 

A quick search of "How to plumb" gives a great list. Did you know you can learn how to plumb a bathroom in just 11 steps on wikihow.com? 

You may be wondering where all of this is leading- and that is to this fun and rather scary contest I came across from an Australian plumbing supply company. Every year Reece looks for the worst DIY plumbing disasters to be submitted by Australian licensed plumbers. Here are the 2014 winners. 

So we want to know- what have you seen? What have you heard about? Share your the best of your worst DIY plumbing and install jobs and I will send you out a Bradford White DIY T-Shirt. 

Send photos and stories to Sarah@richtomkins.com or share on our Facebook page.
