Choosing A Plumber In 6 Easy Steps

Whether you need a complete plumbing system for a brand-new property or just hot

water system installation, choosing the right plumbers for your needs can be a tough task. The marketplace is littered with different providers all claiming that they have the most experience, the lowest prices and the best products. So how do you know which company to choose? Do you go with the lowest quote? Or is it better to choose someone that was recommended to you? Maybe you should base your decision on experience? It all seems a bit overwhelming!

Luckily, we have put together this simple-to-follow guide to help you choose the right company for your needs. Read on, consider your own unique situation, and hopefully this guide will help you choose the right plumbers for your needs.

1.Ask around

You are probably already in the process of doing this, but the first step is to ask around about different potential providers. Ask your family, friends, co-workers and neighbours about which plumbing company they use. Especially listen out for any positive experiences they may have had. The whole aim is to create a shortlist of potential companies to choose from.

2.Research

Once you have asked around and compiled a shortlist of potential plumbers, the next step is to conduct some secondary research on each online. Don"t just go to the company website though, take a look around some forums to try and find reviews and testimonials on each different plumber. This will help you to quickly gauge and evaluate the quality of the different companies.

3.Arrange for quotes

Once you have completed the abovementioned research step, you should be able to further refine your shortlist to about 3 or 4 different companies. Get in contact with them and organise for a meeting and a quote on the work your need. Most plumbers will provide obligation-free quotes on large jobs "" changing a fixture or fixing a leak doesn"t require a quote. During these meetings pay particular attention to those who are good with their communication and appear to genuinely care about you and your needs.

4.Compare quotes

Once you have met with everyone and received your quotes, sit down and carefully compare them. Don"t just judge them on price "" look for value, the amount of services you get for the quoted price. Make sure they are all-inclusive / look for hidden extras that may come back to bite you later on. Most people tend to avoid the lowest-priced quote because it usually means the lowest-quality services.

5.Choose a plumber

Compare everything including your initial and secondary research, quotes, testimonials and perceived quality and choose a plumber. Once chosen, contact them promptly so they can schedule in your job ASAP. If your job is particularly large, ask them to draft a contract of works to be completed.

6.Review your contract

Review your contract and make sure that you are happy with everything before you sign it. This includes the products to be used and the services to be carried out. If you have any concerns make sure you voice them to the plumber so they can be handled appropriately.
