Since the plumbers at Ameri-Tec want you to have the best possible experience, we’re sharing essential tips for finding the best plumber.

Insured? Upfront Prices? Here’s How to Find Expert Plumbers

Trying to decide between all these different plumbing companies can seem overwhelming at first. Each of these companies is promising better service, but which ones really mean it? Keep these key things in mind before you start looking:

  1. Find out if they’re licensed, insured and preferably certified: The first way to make sure whether or not a plumber is a professional is by checking that they’re insured and licensed by the proper regulatory organizations.Advanced plumbers will also seek out certifications demonstrating this competency. These certifications are vital when you need specialized services such as the testing for and prevention of backflow.
  2. Ask about their policies related to service guarantees or warranties: Many key plumbing services like maintenance appointments can help keep the warranties of your plumbing equipment active. In addition, some plumbing companies offer their own warranties on new fixtures or other plumbing equipment. This demonstrates confidence and conditions in place to replace broken equipment.
  3. Find reviews and testimonials from past customers: It never hurts to have a second opinion, and any reviews providing them are a great source of information. If you've noticed several reviews illustrate reasons for caution, you’ll know it can be safer to seek alternatives.
  4. Take the time to thoroughly compare estimates: Once a plumber provides you a quote for the work you want done, your first instinct might be to make sure the estimate is too high. But any quotes that are unusually low could also be a red flag.A steep drop in pricing might be because the plumber will use substandard materials or other shady, cost-saving measures.It’s also important that the quote is based on an on-site assessment to determine the scope of the job. When quotes are only over the phone, the full price tag at the end of the project might be far outside your expectations.
  5. Prioritize plumbers that are responsive, detailed and committed to long-term solutions: A sense of professionalism is always important, but how can you know what a “professional” plumber should be? As an example, the plumbing technician should always be attentive to any of your concerns. At the very least, you’ll have peace of mind that the project will proceed smoothly.

But there are even more ways to confirm your plumber will provide the best possible service. How responsive are they with addressing your concerns? Do they help you learn how and why the problem showed up and keep you in-the-loop on their progress? And finally, the best plumbers offer solutions that endure. Proactive measures keep problems from happening in the first place, which means a more effective and cost-effective plumbing system.
