Unfortunately, when it comes to plumbing, the question isn’t “whether” but rather “when” the problem will arise. It is trendy to hire a plumber, and it is also very costly. The cost can vary based on the severity of the problem. According to Home Advisor, calling a plumber for a minor repair would set you back an average of $300.
Given the frequency of plumbing problems, it might be prudent to put aside specific funds for a “home maintenance budget.” This way, if anything goes wrong, you’ll be well prepared to pay for it rather than being stressed or having to place it on a credit card.
