Find & Compare Plumbers in Your Area!

Plumbers work on the water and drain systems behind walls and under floors: supply lines, fixtures, water heaters, gas lines in many areas, drains and the sewer line out to the street. Most visitors here are dealing with something urgent — a leak, a backup, no hot water — or planning a fixture upgrade or remodel.

Plumbing is licensed by the state or the city in most of the country, usually at apprentice, journeyman and master levels, so ask whose license the work is done under. Ask how they price: a flat rate per job or time and materials, and whether there is a trip or diagnostic charge. For water heaters, repiping and sewer replacements, ask whether they pull the permit. On a sewer or drain problem, a camera inspection before any digging is a reasonable request. Kitchen and bath projects usually pair a plumber with remodeling contractors.
