Should plumbers be certified or licensed?
Yes, state licensing is crucial for professional plumbers. Licensed contractors help protect your insurance coverage and home resale value through compliant work. The "Angi Approved" designation guarantees our listed professionals meet strict criteria: successful background screening, current licensing compliance, minimum 3.0 review average, active advertising status, and full eligibility requirements met. Key difference: Licensing is legally mandatory.
What questions should I ask a plumbing contractor?
A brief interview with any plumber should cover the following topics:
- Are permits and licensing in order?
- Is there a service call fee?
- How do you quote complex jobs?
- Who will be my point of contact?
- How are damages documented?
- Do you handle weekend emergencies?
- Do you protect floors and clean up?
- Warranty on parts and labor?
Having this checklist covered minimizes change orders.
Should I clean before the plumber comes?
Clearing the workspace of boxes, garbage, and other potential obstacles is recommended before your plumber comes. A sanitized bathroom or kitchen area creates a better work environment.
Pets barking or running can interrupt the service.
How much are typical plumbing repair costs?
National repair costs usually hover around $325, sometimes far more.
Common price examples:
- Toilet wax ring: $150–$400
- Basement burst cleanup: $1,000–$4,000+
- Drain obstruction removal: $100–$275
- Heater leak isolation: $200–$600
- Faucet supply/replace: $150–$350
Seasonal demand spikes (freezes, storms) can tighten schedules and increase emergency rates.
How much do plumbers typically charge?
Most plumbers charge around $100 per hour, with rates varying from $45 to $200 based on their qualifications and the nature of your plumbing issue.
Common Rate Structure:
- Normal labor: $45–$200/hr
- Off-hour labor: $150+/hr
- Visit/dispatch: $100–$350
- Holiday uplift: +25–50%
Pricing depends on the plumber's skill set, local market conditions, time of service, and job difficulty level.
How long do plumbers take to complete a plumbing job?
Simple household plumbing repairs often require only a few hours to complete properly. Brief jobs: adjust float valves, replace supply hoses, or rebed a toilet. Multi-story buildings and HOA rules can restrict work hours, extending calendars. Approving estimates and change orders quickly keeps work moving.
When should I call a plumber instead of DIY-ing my project?
When DIY plumbing projects start to go off track, it's wise to seek professional assistance.
Professional help is advised for:
- More extensive damage than planned for
- Leaks in hard-to-access places
- Projects needing specialty tools
- Work involving pipe modifications
- Tasks with hot water, steam, or gas elements
Absolutely nothing wrong with seeking help when needed. If the project complexity exceeds your skills, consider professional services.
