Choosing a plumber is an important part of homeownership.

For the new homeowner, this can be a daunting task.

Knowing what to ask the plumber, what to look for in a plumber, and what to expect can leave some people asking questions.

Today, we will discuss how to choose a trusted plumber, and what you should expect when you call a plumber like Ryan Old Plumbing Services.

What to expect

When you call a plumber, they should be able to quickly and effectively diagnose, then resolve any issues you may have.

A great plumber may become like a family friend with their customer service and willingness to come to your aid when you need them.

They should be able to resolve a multitude of plumbing issues, and even be able to give you advice on how to keep your system running smoothly.

Most professional plumbers can and will take care of filing for or acquiring any permits and other paperwork needed to complete the job.

What to ask

It is wise to ask plenty of questions when you are looking for a good plumber.

Here is a list of questions you can use to get to know your plumber and ensure they are a good fit for you and your house.

• Ask about their experience in the plumbing trade
• What sets them apart from other plumbers?
• Do they have a licence and what training have they had?
• Have them tell you about their company — their motto, standards, and ethics
• Find out how they come to a conclusion on what to charge for their services — is it by the service? Hour? Or what is the determining factor?
• Ask if there are any limitations of the type of job they can or cannot do
• If you have children, ask them if they mind having curious kids asking questions or watching them work — you may also want to ask their policy in regards to pets in the home if you have dogs or cats

Finding a Trusted Plumber

To find a trusted plumber, you may want to ask family, friends, and neighbours if they know of anyone.

Look at the online reviews to see what others are saying about the company.

Check that they have a valid licence, updated insurance, and all the other credentials they may need.

Ensure that they will be able to handle any children or pets you may have.

Discuss any plumbing issues you may have, and get an estimate to find the best prices.

If you intend to keep them as a regular plumber, ensure that you will be able to depend on them and get along with them.

After doing some research and setting up a time for your plumber to come out, you should expect a company like Ryan Old Plumbing Services to provide great service at a great rate.
