When it comes to water, you want someone that really knows what they’re doing. Water pipes, drainage, and fixtures might look simple, but without proper installation by an experienced professional New Jersey plumber, things can go wrong quickly.
Imagine you’re out for the night to a nice dinner with the family, only to return to a leaking pipe or busted fitting that had been dumping water into your home for HOURS. The damage can cost thousands to repair not to mention considerations for mold and mildew.
On the other hand, when done right, plumbing should last for decades without any sigh of leaks or wear.
What to look for when hiring:
Your next New Jersey plumber should be licensed, certified, highly trained, bonded, and insured. It also helps if they are personable, friendly, and willing to answer your questions.
Here are a few quick tips on what to look for…
Licensing
In New Jersey, both master and journeyman plumbers are required to be licensed in order to work in their trade for others.
Be available
When working on your pipes, unexpected issues can arise. Make sure you are available on-premise or via the phone to discuss anything that comes up.
Reviews & References
Good plumbing companies and contractors tend to get loads of good reviews. Do some due diligence and search online for feedback from previous customers. It also doesn’t hurt to ask them directly for a few “references” that you can call. You can also reach out to family, friends, and co-workers for referrals.
Establish a budget early on
Plumbing isn’t cheap, but you don’t want to skimp on shoddy services either. Establish a budget that you are comfortable with before receiving quotes. That way if you find someone you like and they are within the budget you can pull the trigger right away. And don’t forget to ask about the cost of materials when getting a quote.
Plan ahead
If you are hiring a New Jersey plumber for a remodel, renovation, or replacement, have a plan in place as to what you want, are looking for, etc. This will help you to get the best price and speedy service you’ll be satisfied with. Sometimes blueprints are needed and having an idea of what you want will allow you to collaborate with your contractor on getting it right the first time around.
Permits and building codes
Depending on your situation and what needs to be done, you may need a permit from the good city of New Jersey in order for a contractor to begin work. This is especially true if the plumbing is for new construction or a new addition. Talk to your plumber about this and ask whether or not they will handle the permit for you.
We hope you found this “quick tips” to hiring the right New Jersey plumber helpful. Please reach out if you have any questions. We’d love to help in any way that we can.
