5 Tips to Find a Plumber You Can Hire All the time

How many plumbers have you gone through over the last five years? Probably so much that you have lost count – and you’re still hiring more.

But it doesn’t have to be this way. It can be so much better. Do you know how? By doing your due diligence, performing your research, and utilizing clever methods.

Unsure where to begin?

Here are five tips to find a plumber you can hire all the time:

1. Only Hire Plumbers in Your Neighbourhood

Believe it or not, but hiring a plumber is a major decision to make. After watching all of those CNBC or CBC exposes on service repairmen who maintain unscrupulous methods, you fear that you may be a victim of these poor practices.

Do you know how you can avoid this altogether? Only hire plumbers in your neighbourhood.

If you live in Leaside, Forrest Hill, or Rosedale, then you should only look for plumbers who primarily focus on these areas of the city. Plumbers are more accountable if they complete jobs in concentrated parts of the city, which means they will be honest, offer competitive pricing, and repair the problem.

2. Ask for References from Neighbours

Unsure who to hire or where to look? Here is a simple tip: go to your neighbours.

Akin to hiring plumbers in your neighbourhood, your next-door neighbour or that house at the corner of the street might be using the same plumber for several years – or decades. This also suggests that the plumber is someone you can rely if you personally know an individual who is so satisfied with the plumber that they have worked with them for many years.

So, gather some references, call around, and hire a plumber.

3. Probe Their Reputation Online

Whether you dislike your neighbours or you suffer from social anxiety disorder, you can always look online to find a plumber.

Thanks to a wide variety of review websites, as well as social media, you can determine if the plumber, or any other industry professional, is a great fit for your needs. Everything from being on time to going the extra mile to routinely remedying the issue, you can learn a lot from plumbers by checking their online reputation.

The Internet has weeded out the good from the bad and allowed the cream to rise to the top.

4. Ensure the Plumber is Fully Licensed

While it is true that you can hire non-professional, non-licensed plumbers using various task websites, you still might want to consider only tapping fully licensed plumbers.

Ultimately, though a licensed plumber will be able to command higher rates, you can be confident that they have gone through the proper procedures and protocols.

And this is what you want from your plumbing: someone who knows what they are doing!

5. Think About How Much Experience They Have

Whenever we are in an airplane, we always say we don’t want a pilot who is on his first day. Whenever we have surgery, we always note that we don’t want an inexperienced surgeon. Ditto for plumbing.

Simply put: experience matters a lot to us.

As you peruse through plumbing advertisements, one aspect you should concentrate on is how many years they have been in business. Someone who has only been around for a year is far different from someone who has been fixing toilets and repairing faucets for 13 years.

Yes, a novice plumber might still be a great pick, especially since you can work with that professional for many years to come. At the same time, you don’t want to have to constantly have your plumbing fixed. In the end, it is up to you.

Lately, it seems like there is a leak to be fixed, a clogged drain to be remedied, and a pipe to be repaired. It’s frustrating, costly, and time-consuming. But what are you going to do? You need to hire a plumber.

And that’s where the difficulty lies.

Who are you going to call? Who are you going to turn to? Where are you going to go? These are pertinent questions, but by adopting these suggestions, you can be confident in selecting the right plumber. Think about it: In a decade from now, a new neighbour will ask you for a referral, and you can respond with the plumber you selected today.
