Is Your Plumber Too Pushy or Too Cheap?
Posted by admin on May 22, 2016 in Uncategorized
Often when we call a plumber it’s in an emergency situation, but there are red flags to look for once the plumber shows up. First there is the plumber that employs pushy sales tactics. This is the plumber that turns what seemed to you to be a leaking pipe that needed repair into a whole house repipe within a matter of minutes. The cost will be outrageous and the timing will be urgent. A reputable plumbing company will not need to capitalize on your emergency. The flip side is the plumber that gives you a quote that is too good to be true. An inexperienced plumber may not know how to adequately cover the true costs of the job or have the knowledge to do the repair correctly. A quick way to look into your plumbing company before you call them in the first place is to go online to the CCB and search their business name. How long have they been in business? Do they have any claims against them? Do they have to change their name often to dodge a poor reputation? Often online reviews do not give an accurate picture. The right plumber at the right price can make all the difference.
Is Procrastination Costing You?

There are plumbing repairs that should be fixed as soon as possible. A dripping faucet could be sending gallons of unused water down the drain and add unnecessarily to your water bill. But what about a broken hose bib or a leaking pipe? Some slow leaks that are left unattended can cause your sheetrock to be destroyed, dampen your insulation and cause mold to grow, or soak your subfloor and cause dry rot. With plumbing repairs, often saving a few dollars today can cost you much more down the road. Don’t be penny wise and pound foolish!

When Saving Money Is a Bad Thing
Posted by admin on Feb 7, 2016 in Uncategorized
We’ve all done it – tried to cut corners to save a little money. But as the saying goes, that which is cheap becomes expensive. This is very true when it comes to home repairs. Take the time to investigate who you are hiring. Are they licensed? If not, the Construction Contractors Board will not help you if a dispute arises. Are they insured? A simple leak from faulty installment can lead to thousands of dollars of repair bills quickly. How are they going to pay to repair your sheetrock if they couldn’t afford insurance? Saving a couple of bucks on your plumbing repair is never worth it.
