Should plumbers be certified or licensed?
Plumbing is not a DIY trade at scale—licensing is required. Licensed plumbers are accountable to regulators, which encourages higher craftsmanship and ethics. Our "Angi Approved" badge indicates professionals who satisfy our standards: successful background assessment, required licensing compliance, 3.0 or better rating average, regular advertising activity, and requirement fulfillment. Key point: State licensing is compulsory.
What questions should I ask a plumbing contractor?
Good hiring decisions start with clear questions like these:
- Are you bonded, licensed, insured?
- Do you charge diagnostic fees?
- Flat rate vs time & materials?
- Who oversees workmanship?
- Damage responsibility policy?
- 24/7 emergency option?
- Cleanup and protection included?
- Warranty claim process?
This conversation establishes mutual understanding and sets the stage for successful collaboration.
Should I clean before the plumber comes?
Making room for the plumber ensures the job can start right away. Disinfecting sinks or toilets prior to service is highly appreciated.
Avoid letting kids watch closely over the plumber’s shoulder.

The specific repair needed, property size, and plumbing materials influence costs. Economic factors like supply chain disruptions and material shortages also impact pricing.

How long do plumbers take to complete a plumbing job?
Minor repairs with good access tend to finish within a few hours. Including tasks like sink replacement, pipe or toilet unclogging, and dishwasher installation. Some plumbing scenarios require substantially longer timelines. Such as those involving demolition to access pipes, excavation for gas line service, or custom-ordered parts and materials. Accessibility to plumbing fixtures significantly impacts completion time.
When should I call a plumber instead of DIY-ing my project?
When safety, compliance, and long-term reliability matter most, hire a professional.
Professional help is advised for:
- Frozen/burst pipe conditions
- Persistent sewer odors indoors
- Camera/jetter equipment required
- Replacing main sections or fittings
- Work around boilers or steam lines
Absolutely acceptable to realize when professional support is beneficial. If the work is more intricate than expected, hire an expert.
