Plumbers have always had a bad name in the past, but this has changed in recent history with the addition of the Internet and, moreover, review websites like Yelp. Now everyone can search and find out what kind of service others have received from the companies.
However, we must be aware that there are services that you can pay for good Yelp reviews. Although this is very shady, it happens, so you should pay more attention to the details of the comments. Look for details like: This gives you the name of the engineers so you know the name of the person who helped. If a review says something like Great service, will use again or Great service, highly recommended, we can tell they are being very vague, so you may not give this review as much credit.
Fortunately, there are plenty of startups that aim to change the perception of plumbing forever. With a completely honest starting price, arriving on time, keeping the place clean and providing professional service on everything from boiler repair to boiler installation. From blocked drains to installing septic tanks.
Fortunately, these days plumbers are more versatile and prepared to carry out a wider range of services. This not only satisfies the plumber’s wallet but also makes the customer happy as it is now becoming a one stop shop.
This could very well lead to better, honest screaming reviews. I wouldn’t rule out the reviews you find on Google either, again look for some well detailed reviews as they might help you in choosing the plumber of your choice.
Honest plumbers are few and far between, so when you talk to a company on the phone, you may want to ask them a few questions to gauge their answers. Any kind of attitude towards you should not be tolerated as you are willing to be a paying customer and need help. Don’t be afraid to ask questions to ensure you are receiving the respect and service you deserve as a consumer.
Always use the old fashioned method of asking friends and family if they know of a plumber that they would also recommend, this may be an old school tactic but in many cases it still works. Fortunately, if you don’t have too many friends or family who have used plumbing services recently, you have your virtual friends on Yelp! Good luck finding a plumber that’s right for you.
