Plumbing is something everyone must deal with, whether finding a plumbing contractor for new construction, a remodeling project, or just providing plumbing repair.
When Do I Need to Call a Plumbing Contractor?
Some common problems found with plumbing include:
- Rattling pipes; may be caused by several factors, most commonly because they are not sufficiently secured or strapped to the wall frame. The pipes may need to be properly secured.
- Slow drains; may be partially clogged. If a kitchen sink, the dishwasher may be improperly plumbed. The drain may need to be unclogged, or the dishwasher plumbing corrected.
- Loss of hot water when another faucet is turned on; especially in older homes when hot and cold water pressures are not balanced. A pressure balance valve may be required.
- Toilet tank leaks plumbing parts inside the tank or seals may need replacing.
To make sure these plumbing repair problems are properly addressed, or when doing a remodeling project, you may want to enlist the services of a licensed plumbing contractor.
Plumbing a Remodel or New Construction
A remodeling project might include new plumbing design or new plumbing installation. You will want to meet with the plumber and all contractors involved and develop a timeline, so everyone works together and the project goes smoothly.
Before taking bids from potential plumbing contractors, make sure you have detailed plans. Provide each candidate with an identical copy of the plans. Rule of thumb is to get at least three different bids for a project. . Just because you get a low bid doesn’t necessarily mean that is the one you want! Scrutinize the bids carefully, make sure you are comparing apples to apples. Not every plumber uses top shelf plumbing products, demand quality!
Ask candidates if they are licensed to do plumbing. Ask each candidate when they could start, and when the project would be completed. Take the time to check references on other projects they have completed.
