Article: If you've ever had a problem with your leaky taps
, showers or drains then you know how hard it can be to find a good plumber. To have one who doesn't leave a mess after they've finished and does the job properly isn't as simple as jumping onto Google. You need to do your research. In A place like Sydney this is even more difficult due to the large amount of plumbers available. Did you know there are over 4000 plumbing companies in the city alone. No wonder finding the right one can be a difficult task.
So how do you sort out the good plumbers from the bad ones? Well We have compiled a simple check list that will help you make sure you find the right plumber for your needs.
Make sure they are licensed and have legal permission to operate
Check some of their past testimonials and work history
Do they appear legitimate? A company website and phone number can help you here
Do they offer the exact services you require
Do they offer any sort of guarantee
Will they clean up after themselves
As we said earlier, finding a good plumber isn't as simple as opening up your local phone directory and calling the first number you see. You need to do your due diligence to be sure you are making the right decision that will get the job done right.
Something else to consider is a call out fee. Lots of plumbers will charge you a large callout fee which means you might have to pay up to $100 before they even start the work, this is not acceptable. A good plumber will stand by their work and offer a very cheap call out fee (or no call out fee at all) and charge reasonably.
Another tip is to choose a plumber that is in your area. Say for example you need a plumber in the Sydney CBD. Then its best to use a plumber that is based in the heart of the city so that you can obtain service quickly and efficiently.
