In search of a good plumber

February 6th, 2009 by Paul Abrams

Need a plumber Boston? Need a plumber Salt Lake City? There are plenty of them in the phone book and an on-line search will reveal even more but how do you know which one is best? The short answer is you don't.

Consider more than just the price quote. Ask about a guarantee so you will be protected if the plumbing problems aren't fixed right. Ask if the plumber carries adequate liability insurance. I'd ask that question before the plumbing contractors get out their blow torches and start working on pipe inside your walls.

With the slow down in new construction, a lot of construction plumbers who were helping build new homes have begun doing plumbing repair and replacement work until the housing market picks up again. Make sure the plumber you choose isn't going to disappear in search of new construction work halfway across the country. You'll want a plumber you can find if you need to exercise your guarantee on those kitchen plumbing jobs or that sewer repair.
