DIY especially when done well is great

but spend when you need. Don’t begrudge the man his due when you do ask for help 

i think he took longer to write the bill than clearing the choke.

but as long as it gets done well.......

I got actually got this plumber's contact from an old thread here many years ago and have been using him since

Ah Soon - 9855 0906

He is in the east though.

He just helped me fix a faulty PRV for my toilet storage heater. 

Had his number stored a few years ago. 

My wife is happy with his work. and before he came down. I had a few calls with him over WhatsApp when he was trying to troubleshoot the problem. Uncle got sense of professional pride!

If you live in Illinois, I can recommend J Blanton. They offer reliable and responsible emergency plumbing, which I think is very helpful. I also like that their pricing is upfront, as their employees will let you know the price before they start working. Here's where you can learn more about them.

I’ve got a bit of issue with my faucets

the base is a bit loose but the bottom under the sink is inaccessible 

Is there some way I can tighten from the top?

unless I remove the whole sink I can’t access it from the bottom 😔

I don't think the installer can install the faucet without access from the bottom because the hose is the last piece of connection.

What you need is a proper tool to tighten from below. You just need 5-6 cm diameter from below.

You can find someone who can do it?

I’ll be most grateful 🥲

Any plumber can do. Or can teach you to DIY if you have the tools and willing to crawl under. 
but I don’t have a plumber recommendation.
