You may need basic tools to successfully accomplish this job. With that in mind, let\u2019s take a closer look at plumbing issues you can DIY, and when it\u2019s time to call licensed plumbers to troubleshoot the issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Fixing a Leaky Faucet:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The good news is that you can fix a leaky faucet with just a few tools or a faucet repair kit.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Clogged Toilet: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unclogging a toilet can be done by simply using a plunger.
