Should plumbers be certified or licensed?
State statutes usually mandate licensing for plumbing work. Licensed pros use approved methods and materials matched to your local code. 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?
To confirm insurance, workmanship, and support, ask the following:
- Are you licensed, insured, bonded?
- Is the quote itemized?
- Flat vs hourly—recommendation?
- Will you subcontract anything?
- What if walls/floors are damaged?
- Emergency ETA range?
- Do you cover dust containment?
- Warranty claim steps?
You’ll avoid miscommunication and last-minute changes.
Should I clean before the plumber comes?
A neat, prepared space is essential for efficient plumbing service. A tidy repair site reflects well on the homeowner.
Children should be supervised during the plumber’s visit.
How much are typical plumbing repair costs?
Average household plumbing repair is roughly $325, within a $175–$4,000+ band.
Common price examples:
- Toilet rocking base: $150–$400
- Ceiling leak burst: $1,000–$4,000+
- Drain blockage removal: $100–$275
- Tankless heater repair: $200–$600
- Faucet refresh/replace: $150–$350
Safety measures (containment, PPE, scaffolding) for certain jobs can alter the final bill.
How much do plumbers typically charge?
Expect $100/hr for most repairs, with diagnostic-only visits sometimes a bit lower or higher.
Common Rate Structure:
- Base labor rate: $45–$200/hr
- Crisis labor: $150+/hr
- Truck fee: $100–$350
- Holiday premium: +25–50%
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?
Typical residential calls for simple issues are measured in hours, not days. Typical quick work: swap a faucet, tighten slip joints, or clear a localized clog. Septic or well system tie-ins may add separate, longer-duration steps. Photos or videos sent ahead may streamline initial diagnostics.
When should I call a plumber instead of DIY-ing my project?
When a project stalls because parts don’t fit, a plumber can provide correct replacements.
Professional help is advised for:
- Toilet/sewer backflow
- Leak behind tiled walls
- Camera verification required
- Cut-and-cap operations
- Steam lines or gas valves
It's perfectly fine to recognize when you need additional assistance. If the project proves more complex than expected, professional help is advisable.
