  replace these components of the affected plumbing
  systems.

• Preparation of cost estimates
• In an era of rising inflation, a plumber needs to
  be knowledgeable about the prices of goods and
  services in order to charge a client
  appropriately and based on the prevailing cost of
  materials, equipment and labour. If a plumber
  undercharges, they run the risk of losing their
  money. If they overcharge, they run the risk of
  losing their client.
• Regardless of the type or level of experience of
  a plumber, plumbers need technical, physical,
  analytical, problem-solving and communication
  skills to be able to function effectively.
