Should plumbers be certified or licensed?
Yes, licensed status differentiates qualified professionals. Licensed professionals maintain traceable records and job histories. Look for the "Angi Approved" certification in our professional listings. This badge indicates the business meets our rigorous standards: criminal background clearance, valid licensing, minimum 3.0 rating, active advertising, and compliance with all requirements. Note: State licensing is legally required.
What questions should I ask a plumbing contractor?
Cover the fundamentals with your plumber by asking this:
- License/insurance on record?
- Free assessment?
- Flat vs hourly?
- Who’s doing the work?
- Damage handling?
- Emergencies covered?
- Cleanup included?
- Warranty offered?
Confirming these points leads to smoother site work and cleanup.
Should I clean before the plumber comes?
Uncluttered workspaces make for faster, safer plumbing visits. Maintaining cleanliness ensures a safer and faster repair.
Pets should be contained to avoid startling the plumber.
How much are typical plumbing repair costs?
Homeowners generally spend about $325, though costs may start at $175 and go beyond $4,000.
Common price examples:
- Standard toilet repair: $150-400
- Critical pipe bursts: $1,000-4,000+
- Drain services: $100-275
- Water heater issues: $200-600
- Fixture services: $150-350
Older homes with tight spaces or nonstandard layouts may require more labor, increasing total cost.
How much do plumbers typically charge?
Many estimates normalize to about $100/hr over the job.
Common Rate Structure:
- Hourly labor: $45-$200
- Emergency premium: $150+/hour
- Service call: $100-$350
- Holiday surcharge: 25-50% extra
Several factors affect pricing including the plumber's expertise, your location, time of day, and difficulty of the plumbing issue.
How long do plumbers take to complete a plumbing job?
Two-to-four hours is common for small residential plumbing tasks. Including tasks like sink replacement, pipe or toilet unclogging, and dishwasher installation. Code-required testing and commissioning (pressure, leak, combustion) add scheduled steps. Providing appliance and fixture model numbers speeds up prep.
When should I call a plumber instead of DIY-ing my project?
If a ‘quick job’ keeps uncovering surprises, stop and call a professional.
Professional help is advised for:
- Sewage backup or gurgling
- Leak in shared/HOA lines
- Specialized leak detection needed
- Main stack or branch replacement
- Fuel or steam line proximity
It's perfectly fine to recognize when you need additional assistance. If the project proves more complex than expected, professional help is advisable.
