Come scegliere un buon idraulico


Translating…

When faced with an emergency problem in the home such as plumbing that is not working as it should, it is not the best action to try doing things on your own. While it is true that some things may not require the services of a professional plumber, such as minor clogs that can be cleared by hot water or mild chemical clearing solutions, major problems such as leaking pipes will need you to call a plumber. But before doing so, you need to keep in mind the following so that you are assured of an excellent, professional plumbing service:

1. Availability

Of course, no one would really expect or want to deal with the inconvenience and discomfort of dealing with a plumbing trouble. But as it goes, problems surface at times that you don’t expect it most. So you would want a plumber that is available for service at any time of the day, whether it is daytime or in the middle of the night. Leaking pipes, for instance, won’t stop leaking the moment you call a plumber over the phone, the plumber has to come over to fix it. A good plumbing service provider understands this situation, and therefore offers service 24 hours a day.

2. Reputation

Most plumbing companies would of course advertise the excellence of their service. But it would not be prudent to base your judgment about the quality of their service on claims and advertisements alone. It would be to your best interest if you can find a more reliable source of information regarding a plumber’s service, such as your neighbors, friends, or acquaintances who have used a particular plumbing service before. If they think and feel that they have been served with superb value and quality, they will be more than happy to recommend the same plumbing service provider to you. So it would be a good idea to ask your neighbors, friends, or acquaintances for a recommendation before making that call. You should also keep in mind that a reputable plumber must be properly licensed, so don’t hesitate to ask for his license when setting up a service appointment.

3. Personalized Customer Service

A plumbing company that takes your call with an answering machine clearly indicates only one thing: you can not be assured of a good service, especially if the machine asks for your name, address, and contact information rather transferring your call to a human receptionists. It is obvious of course, that machines can never evaluate let alone understand the nature of your plumbing concern.

4. Pricing & Warranty

Before finalizing your appointment for a plumbing service, make sure that you have been clearly apprised of the cost you are going to pay for it. This is to ensure that you will not be charged with a bill that is over and above your capacity or willingness to pay. If the cost is inclusive of a warranty, so much the better, as any problem that may occur after the service will be shouldered by such a warranty and not come as an added cost on your part.
