4 Tips for Hiring a Quality Plumber

When it comes to your home’s plumbing, you don’t want to mess around with shoddy workmanship. One wrong move, and you could be looking at thousands of dollars in water damage. Whether you have a leaky pipe or need assistance with a bathroom remodel, you want a plumber you can rely on.

At Indy Renovation, we’d love to tell you, “Just come to us!” However, we know you need to feel confident in your hiring decision and do a little research. Toward that end, let us suggest a few tips for finding a plumbing company you can trust.

1. Gather recommendations.

Ask your friends, coworkers, or family members for insider info on area plumbers. Find out what their experiences were like and who they would recommend for your home project. This firsthand knowledge is invaluable to find a good plumber.

2. Consider the job at hand.

Do you need a plumber skilled in emergency services? Or maybe you want someone who does more work with bathroom remodeling? Be sure to find out about the plumber’s experience, and compare it to your needs. If you can find someone who has extensive knowledge and experience with your particular home project, then take a second look.

3. Check credentials.

You may be able to save money hiring the friend of a friend who once installed his own water softener. However, to get quality workmanship backed with training and guarantees, check the credentials. Make sure the plumber has been through the appropriate training and is licensed in your state. If you aren’t sure, just ask.

4. Peruse customer feedback.

Even though you probably gathered feedback from friends, it doesn’t hurt to check out what others are saying about that plumbing company. You can usually find online customer reviews directly on the plumber’s website or on service review sites.

When you take your time and do your research, you’re much more likely to find the right plumber the first time.
