Don’t Make Assumptions, Get it in Writing
Plumbers often make assumptions by glancing at the problem without performing their due diligence. Our plumbers inspect your plumbing system to ensure that we identify all possible causes of your leak, clog, or another plumbing issue.
If you have contacted the plumber who originally messed up without luck, give us a call for a fast, thorough resolution. Unfortunately, there are many unscrupulous plumbing companies waiting to take advantage of unsuspecting homeowners. Our plumbers perform installations, conduct routine maintenance, and take on broken pipes or tough clogs, even when it’s another plumber that caused the problem.
Also, we won’t ghost you once we complete the plumbing service. If we need come back, we’re glad to do it. Unless you are 100% satisfied, the job isn’t finished.
Wrong Fit
This is a rookie mistake made by many DIY homeowners. However, you should expect more from your plumbing service. Licensed, insured plumbers are familiar with local codes and know how to properly size pipes, joints, and fixtures. In an emergency, other plumbing companies might rush through the job, kludging together a fix that temporarily solves the issue.
Improperly fitted pipes and joints can end up causing more damage in the long run. To avoid catastrophic flooding and damage that cost thousands to fix, call bluefrog Plumbing + Drain for reliable plumbing service that won’t cause further damage to your home.
Rush Jobs
If you call a plumbing company that promises to squeeze you into their busy schedule, run the other way fast. This probably means they over-schedule appointments, causing their technicians to rush through jobs to increase the bottom line. We believe that providing quality plumbing service results in loyal customers who refer us for future business. That’s more important than rushing through a job and missing problems that can come back to haunt the homeowner after we leave.
What Should You Do After a Poor Plumbing Job?
You must decide whether to call the same plumber who caused you such an inconvenience. Do you really want to trust them with your plumbing system a second time? Also, once a company has your money, you won’t be their first priority. It may make more sense to contact bluefrog Plumbing + Drain to correct the issue and leave behind solid work that we stand behind with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
If you do call the plumber who caused the problem, make sure they do not charge you for the second visit. Get the guarantee in writing. If no one answers or shows up to fix the problem, call a reputable plumbing company — such as bluefrog — with positive ratings and reviews from clients.
Some Frustrated Homeowners Do It Themselves
Unless you have experience with plumbing service, we don’t recommend fixing a bad plumbing repair. Despite your bad experience, professional plumbers receive specialized training and have the knowledge and skills to handle anything that comes up with your residential plumbing. Tackling the job on your own may end up making the situation worse. You could end up with a much higher repair bill or cause a leak that threatens the structure of your home.
Choosing a Reliable Plumber
You can rely on friends and relatives to refer you to a reliable plumber but that is not a foolproof plan. Check out the company site to see what customers are saying about their service. For example, at bluefrog Plumbing + Drain, our clients often leave testimonials praising our prompt service and affordable rates.
Choose a plumbing service with same day appointments and emergency services when you need urgent plumbing service.
