I called a plumber, but was told that I have to let somebody open the ceiling, so he can work on it. He only does the plumbing job, not ceiling or tiling. 怎么这么麻烦?
【在 b********z 的大作中提到】 : plumber : Make sure that he is licensed and insured : more than likely, the wax ring of toilet is bad. : The price to replace it is around 150-200.

because his insurance doesn't cover the damage of the ceiling in case there is something going wrong. You can let him come, and open the ceiling yourself, after all done, seal the ceiling yourself or hire a handyman to do it. This is U.S and you have to grow up.

那我干脆把leaking也修了算了 - 估计就是下水管道没密封好,比ceiling 好修。

这就是为啥我建议handyman。你找的那个handyman不够handy

好的,handy的 man 不好找。 在 Angies'List 找了几个 A rating,要不太忙(等一个月),要不不回电话。
I see. You are a handyman, just not feeling comfortable touching ceiling drywall, spackling and painting, and would rather pay $700 for that... A rich handyman :)

Do you want to mess around with your dining room?

Okay, do whatever you feel comfortable. Find a good handyman for that.. Spackling and painting is easy, but you want to find the right paint and use the right paint roller to match the texture.
