It’s not difficult to find a plumber when you have a leak, need new fixtures installed or just need something serviced. A simple search online will typically bring up dozens of plumbers in your area. But how do you choose from all the plumbers available? How do you know you’ll get the service you need at a reasonable price, and you won’t need another service call in six months? Here are some things to look for when considering a plumber.

How Long Have They Been in Business?

Everybody has to start out sometime, but you don’t want to be a plumber’s first job, unless you know that plumber has extensive training and has apprenticed with a reputable and experienced shop. Plumbing is one of those occupations where the longer you’ve worked, the more you’ve learned. Look for a company that has a few years under its belt.

What Types of Services Do They Offer?

Your job may be a complex one, requiring a broad range of skills. Make certain the plumber can handle all the requirements of the job, so that you don’t have to hire someone else to finish or prep the work. You might need to have all new pipes installed, gas lines serviced (if you have a gas water heater) or a new sump pump installed.

When Are They Available?

Plumbing problems don’t always arise during banker’s hours. When a pipe breaks in the middle of the night or on a weekend, you want to know that you can get timely service. You also want to know that the plumbing service has enough employees that you won’t have to wait days or weeks to get something fixed.
