Frequently Asked Question

Plumbers usually charge for their work by the hour, and the national average cost is about $100 per hour plus a service fee or minimum charge. Overall, hourly rates for plumbing can range from $25 to $200, depending on the experience level of the plumber and on the repair needed.
When it comes to plumbing, it's usually best to hire a professional, certified plumber. Even a small mistake can lead to leaks that can cause wall, floor, and ceiling damage and require costly repairs. Many people don't think about hiring a plumber until they have a problem, but plumbing maintenance is important, too.
Professional plumbing requires a set of unique skills and knowledge that come more naturally to some people than others, and when you hire a plumber, you're paying for their expertise in their field.

For entry-level plumbers, the average annual base salary is $47,500, or $22.84 per hour. For intermediate plumbers with 2-4 years of experience, the average rises to $55,800, or $33.37 per hour. At the senior level, defined as 4-6 years of experience, the average is $62,200, or $29.90 per hour.
It's reasonable for a plumber to require a deposit in advance for large jobs, or in pre-arranged payments as the job progresses. But, always reserve a percentage of the total cost until the work is completed as promised.
The best and most reliable plumbers don't give free quotes on routine plumbing repairs and services since these smaller jobs only often take one to three hours to be completed. This means that you will only pay for what you see.
Most plumbers work to 30 day payment terms. That's fine, but when setting that out it needs to be made clear that late payment is not acceptable.
