How to Choose the Right Plumbers in Chicago
Not all plumbers are created equal. Here's what to look for:
- Always verify the plumber holds a valid state license — ask for the license number and check it online.
- Get at least 3 written quotes before committing, especially for large jobs like water heater replacement.
- Ask if they charge by the hour or by the job — flat-rate pricing is easier to budget for.
- Check that they're insured for both liability and workers' comp before letting anyone into your home.
Pro tip: Always ask for a written estimate before any work begins. Reputable plumbers provide free quotes — walk away from anyone who refuses.
