Should plumbers be certified or licensed?
Yes, licenses help enforce safety and building codes. Local authorities can penalize non-permitted, unlicensed plumbing with fines or redo orders. Our "Angi Approved" professionals undergo thorough vetting including: comprehensive background checks, verification of all required licenses, maintenance of 3.0+ star ratings, regular advertising activity, and adherence to eligibility standards. Important distinction: Licensing is a legal necessity.
What questions should I ask a plumbing contractor?
These due-diligence questions help you choose a trustworthy plumbing pro:
- Can you email license/insurance certs?
- Are diagnostics billable?
- How do you prevent overages?
- Who attends the walkthrough?
- Damage prevention methods?
- Emergency triage process?
- Who handles cleanup?
- Warranty length and fine print?
With these questions answered, you can compare bids apples-to-apples.
Should I clean before the plumber comes?
Cleaning the area in advance helps avoid unnecessary complications. Plumbers value a clean and prepared work environment.
Pets barking or running can interrupt the service.
How much are typical plumbing repair costs?
In most cases, repairs fall in the $175–$4,000 range, with a midpoint around $325.
Common price examples:
- Basic toilet fixes: $150-400
- Emergency pipe bursts: $1,000-4,000+
- Clog removal: $100-275
- Water heater service: $200-600
- Fixture installation: $150-350
Travel distance, minimum service fees, and after-hours surcharges often influence the final invoice.
How much do plumbers typically charge?
A clear rule of thumb: target $100/hr for planning.
Common Rate Structure:
- Regular rate: $45-$200/hr
- Emergency rate: $150+/hr
- Service call: $100-$350
- Holiday rate: Additional 25-50%
Costs vary based on the technician's qualifications, regional market rates, service timing, and repair complexity.
How long do plumbers take to complete a plumbing job?
Simple, single-scope plumbing tasks typically run a few hours. Examples include new sink installation, pipe or toilet clog removal, and dishwasher installation. Hidden issues discovered during demolition (corrosion, rot, mold) can increase overall timelines. If walls must be opened, pre-removal of decor can save minutes.
When should I call a plumber instead of DIY-ing my project?
If you can’t guarantee a watertight seal, bring in a licensed plumber.
Professional help is advised for:
- Repeated clogs post-repair
- Moisture in wall cavities
- Camera/locator tools needed
- Replace multiple fittings
- Boiler/heater interfaces
No shame in acknowledging when you could use some expert support. If the job is more involved than anticipated, a professional plumber can help.
