Should plumbers be certified or licensed?
Most municipalities recognize only licensed plumbing work. Unlicensed work often means poor craftsmanship, expensive future repairs, and possible legal violations. 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?
When selecting a plumbing professional, make sure to discuss these important questions:
- What licenses/insurance do you carry?
- Are quotes firm or estimates only?
- Pricing model and minimum charges?
- Who exactly will do the work?
- Damage liability and resolution?
- After-hours emergency availability?
- Cleanup responsibilities?
- Warranty duration and coverage?
With these questions answered, you can compare bids apples-to-apples.
Should I clean before the plumber comes?
Eliminate clutter beforehand to make the plumbing process less disruptive. Plus, giving extra attention to cleaning the problem area itself, such as a clogged drain or leaking fixture, is beneficial.
A distraction-free environment is the safest option.
How much are typical plumbing repair costs?
Plumbing bills generally cluster near $325, though complexity drives the $175–$4,000 range.
Common price examples:
- Toilet gasket/handle: $150–400
- Pipe break emergency team: $1,000–4,000+
- Drain diagnostics/clear: $100–275
- Water heater repair trip: $200–600
- Faucet refurbish: $150–350
Travel distance, minimum service fees, and after-hours surcharges often influence the final invoice.
How much do plumbers typically charge?
Published rate cards often anchor at $100/hr with tiers by tech level.
Common Rate Structure:
- Typical: $45–$200/hr
- Urgent: $150+ hr
- Truck/van: $100–$350
- Holiday: +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?
Minor component replacements are often completed in a few hours. You might see quick fixes like replacing shutoff valves, unclogging sink drains, and reseating toilets. 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?
When the repair requires soldering/brazing and you’re not trained, call a pro.
Professional help is advised for:
- Repeated clogs after DIY attempts
- Leaks near electrical components
- Need for soldering/brazing or threading
- Replacement of corroded sections
- Projects tied to hot water systems
No shame in acknowledging when you could use some expert support. If the job is more involved than anticipated, a professional plumber can help.
