...I've seen a lot of bad work done by licensed electricians and plumbers.

You don't have to be smart to be a plumber or electrician. You just need to know the code.

And I'll not stay home when I have something to give to the world and a shoulder to put to the wheel.
I know bathrooms in their entirety.
Show me a plumber or electrician who does.
