How to choose a plumber
- For a leak, describe where the water shows up and shut the supply valve if you can.
- Ask for the license number and check it with the state.
- Ask whether the job needs a permit — water-heater replacements and re-piping usually do.
- Compare what each quote includes: parts, haul-away, permit, warranty terms the company offers.
License, insurance and other details on a profile are stated by the company itself. BisHub shows them as provided and does not verify them — check a license with the issuing authority before you hire.
