How to choose a plumber

  1. Pricing There are several different charges. Call out Fee Most of the plumbers have a fee named Call out fee. This is a fee for just asking him to come to your place. No matter what he will do next even he doesn't do anything, you have to pay him. So before asking them to come, confirm the Call out fee first. You can pick the services with Zero call out fee. Hourly Fee Some services charge every half an hour. The most expensive rate I know is 799 per hour. Equipment Fee Any equipments used might be charged hourly. GST Usually they will only tell you the price without GST which means you needs to pay 10% more of the final price.
  2. Rating Please focus on the overall rate and the worst comment you can see. The company may hire other people to write good comments for them.
  3. Patience Keep asking important questions, if they are not patient at all, usually means they have too much work to do and they don't care about you.
  4. No too expensive or too cheap If your work is big, bigger company with higher rate might be a good choice. Smaller company may doesn't have a better equipment for the job.
  5. Always asking for a fixed price before starting any job. A price range like quote will always take you to the highest price.
