Gods honest truth is I trust my install more than most “professional” installations. I have seen countless installers cut corners and do shady stuff because “it’s what they have on the truck.” When I am doing a job I take my time because I care about the result. The only thing Joe the plumber gives a F about is getting to all his calls that day. Your job will be rushed as necessary to make those other jobs.
What Adam said.
I can certainly afford to pay someone to do the work, but it actually is a much bigger investment of time after you search for a good contractor, contact them, keep contacting more when the first few dont call you back, schedule their time which is usually in a week or two, take time off work to stay home, take more time off work because they are late, etc etc
AND
thats before they even do the work, which will probably be shitty.
I have a paid Angies List membership, and I have hired the highest rated, most expensive contractors and they STILL fuck the job up. Every damn time.
I did my own water heater at my old place and it was super easy. Even sweat soldering the copper pipe was laughably easy.
