It feels as though a good plumber is hard to find. Ask anyone, and you’ll hear all kinds of horror stories about jobs left undone and massive bills being handed over.
However, there is a way to find good Swindon based plumbers. Here’s what to look out for when you’re shopping around.
Accreditation
Not everyone can call themselves a plumber, not without the right accreditation. A good plumber has been trained well, and will hold the proper qualifications to be able to work in your home.
If you’re not sure about a plumber, ask to see these accreditations. If they’re a reputable worker, they’ll be happy to show them to you.
Clean and tidy
A plumber that’s good at their job will carry out the work on your home, and then clean up after themselves. You shouldn’t be expected to do this for them once they’re done.
If you aren’t sure about a plumber, ask around, or look for reviews. They’ll soon tell you if they’re clean and tidy in their job.
Insurance
As well as having accreditations, a plumber needs to be insured. Hopefully the worst won’t happen, but you want to be covered if anything does happen.
If a plumber has insurance, there should be evidence of this on their website. You can also ask for the documentation if you’re not sure.
Experience
All plumbers need to start somewhere, but if they’re in your home you want to make sure they have the experience you need.
If you look on a plumber’s website, they’ll often tell you how many years experience they have and the more, the better.
Accurate estimates
If you ask a plumber into your home to estimate the price of a job, they should be able to give you an educated estimate on how much it should cost.
Of course, there may be other issues that are underlying or materials that may change the cost slightly, but you shouldn’t have too many issues with the price changing.
A good plumber will be upfront with you about how much a job will be.
