How To Choose A Plumber

Finding a trustworthy local plumber who turns up on time, does a good job and charges a reasonable price is not as hard as you might think. Here are some tips on how to choose a plumber:-

How To Choose A Plumber – Check References

Your first port of call is to ask your family, friends, neighbours and colleagues if they can recommend someone. You can also use an online service such as Which? Trusted Traders to find reviews of local plumbers near you. If you need work on gas, then your plumber must be Gas Safe Registered. Gas Safe (formerly known as CORGI) is the national register of qualified gas engineers. All the plumbers registered with Which? Trusted Traders must Gas Safe qualified.

How To Choose A Plumber – Get a Quote

Once you have chosen some plumbers you are going to call for quotes, you can get on the phone and explain to them what your problem is – in as much detail as you can. The plumbers will give their call out charges given, but the amount you will pay on top varies depending on the problem. If it’s not urgent then get at least three quotes, but it may not be possible for the plumbers to five a firm price on the phone without taking a look in person first. So, always treat quotes given over the phone as an estimate only.

How To Choose A Plumber – Choose Carefully

When the plumber you have called has agreed to take a look at your issue; before engaging them with the task, you can establish whether you trust them: did they arrive on time? Did the plumber speak in a language you could easily understand? Did the plumber give a clear written quote of what work will be done and how much it will cost?
