When it comes time to hire someone to unclog a drain, there certainly is no shortage of plumbers in Port St Lucie. So, how do you narrow down the list of available plumbers and pick the best company for the job? Here are some tips to help you get your pipes back in working order.

Referrals

The first thing you should do is talk to someone who recently had plumbing work completed. Ask them if they were happy with the company’s work and if they would refer them to a friend or family member. A referral is a good way to narrow down your list of plumbers in Port St Lucie.

Presentation/Professionalism

When you are choosing a company, you actually need to consider its appearance. Most likely, reputable plumbers who take pride in their work will look, act, and dress professionally. Reputable companies treat their customers with respect, so if you contact a company that says it will get back to you in a certain amount of time and does not, it is probably a good idea to move on to the next name on your list.

Estimates/Insurance

Reputable companies will give you an accurate estimate. The best in the business do not beat around the bush when giving you the cost to complete a job. The bottom line is you need to ask a company if any “additional costs” will come up after the job is finished. A good company will give you that assurance you need in writing.

Make sure you choose a company who is licensed, bonded, and insured. If you choose someone who is not a licensed contractor, what happens if that person or company breaks a pipe and does not claim responsibility? You are on the hook for those repair costs. A company’s insurance protects you if such an incident should occur.
