That $900 boiler repair job last fall was cheaper in the long run than the DIY fix I did 2 years ago

I patched a tube sheet leak myself back in 2022 and it held for maybe 6 months before blowing out during a pressure test, costing me double in downtime and parts, so has anyone else found that paying someone with a proper tube expander actually saves money on the bigger jobs?

Hire it out if you don't already own the specialized tools, simple as that.

Ryan, even I'd rent before buying tools that just collect dust.
