Now I’m not a plumber or contractor by any stretch, but I do believe I could do better.

I think my 4 year old could do better. This is scary. One bad day of weather and the house goes bye bye.

Your 4 year old would have to do better. I doubt they have the upper body strength to do worse.

It looks exactly like how I do morkite refinery pipes when playing a Driller in Deep Rock Galactic.

Same and I'm lazy and that looks like a lot of work knocking holes in that.

You would be correct. That's a massive lawsuit right there. Plumber is about to be on the hook for a 6 figure repair.

Just by looking at the work here, I wouldn't doubt it.

I'm only a plumber in I've fixed three sink drains by unscrewing the part, taking it to the hardware store, getting a replacement part, and screwing it back in...but recently I had an odd one which made me look into various plumbing shit...I 100% know I could at least design it better if not simply do it better. I want to reiterate the point that I am an amateur plumber that acknowledges I'm pretty ignorant about plumbing so if this was paid for this is doubly sorry.
