This short article gives you some straight-forward pointers to ensure that when you next need a plumber you find a professional, who will do a great job and won’t try to rip you off.
Professional Plumbing Qualifications
Plumbing is a skilled trade and as such any plumber that you look at hiring should have the relevant qualification to prove that he has learned his trade and is not somebody who has had some cheap business cards printed and now calls himself/herself a plumber.
Reputation
Another thing you should check is the Plumber reputation, because even is they have all the qualifications, they may still be terrible to work with. Reputations are easier to check nowadays with the aid of the internet – just pop the plumber’s name in google along with the word ‘plumber’ and you should find them easily, then check and read all the online reviews from previous customers that come up – at least 80% need to be positive.

Payment/terms of work

If you sort this out at the beginning of the project it will save you any problems further on done the line.
Friendly
When you invite a plumber to your home to access the price/project you will want someone who treats you and your home with respect and are friendly.
Estimates
A professional plumber should be able to provide you with an accurate estimate once he has assessed the project. Everything should be upfront, so as to avoid any nasty surprises after the work is done.
