Should plumbers be certified or licensed?
Yes, professional licensing is critical for plumbers. Unlicensed plumbing work often results in inferior quality, additional costs down the line, and potential regulatory non-compliance. The "Angi Approved" certification ensures professionals meet our high standards: thorough background investigation, valid licensing documentation, minimum 3.0 star average, advertising participation, and eligibility requirement fulfillment. Critical distinction: State licensing is obligatory.
What questions should I ask a plumbing contractor?
When selecting a plumbing professional, make sure to discuss these important questions:
- Proof of licensing and insurance?
- Cost for estimates and consultations?
- Flat fee or hourly rate structure?
- Credentials of plumbing team?
- Policy for accidents or damages?
- Availability for emergency calls?
- Post-job cleanup provisions?
- Workmanship warranty terms?
These questions provide clarity and help build confidence in your plumbing professional.
Should I clean before the plumber comes?
For optimal efficiency, tidy up the area by removing boxes, trash, and any items that might block access before the plumber visits. As well as general clearing, detailed cleaning of the specific plumbing fixture in question is suggested.
Keep children and pets safely distanced from the service area during the entire plumbing appointment.

How long do plumbers take to complete a plumbing job?
Simple household plumbing repairs often require only a few hours to complete properly. Like installing new sinks, removing pipe or toilet clogs, and setting up dishwashers. Some plumbing projects require significantly more time. Examples include jobs requiring wall demolition to access pipes, excavation for gas line work, or waiting for specialized parts and materials. Multiple plumbing issues discovered during service can extend the timeline.
When should I call a plumber instead of DIY-ing my project?
When DIY plumbing projects start to go off track, it's wise to seek professional assistance.
Professional help is advised for:
- More damage than initially visible
- Leaks in difficult access points
- Projects requiring professional tools
- Pipe cutting or fitting replacement
- Work involving hot water, steam, or gas systems
It's perfectly fine to recognize when you need additional assistance. If the project proves more complex than expected, professional help is advisable.
