It depends on the volatility of outcomes of paying $30 per hour for someone else to do something.

I like to do things myself or learn how to when I cannot sufficiently predict the quality of the service I will get or if the damage can be too great.

Right on. Finding the person who do it right is harder than doing it yourself. If they are any good, they will charge a lot or quit in time and find a better paying job.
