Why You Should Choose a Licensed & Insured Plumber
When it comes to plumbing, peace of mind matters just as much as the repair itself. Whether you’re facing a burst pipe at midnight or planning a water heater upgrade, working with a licensed and insured plumber isn’t just smart, it’s essential.
What Does “Licensed and Insured” Really Mean?
A licensed plumber is someone who has passed state exams, completed rigorous training, and meets legal standards to perform plumbing work. Insurance, on the other hand, protects both the plumber and the homeowner from any unexpected damages or accidents during the job.
It’s more than a formality, it’s your first layer of protection.
The Risks of Hiring an Unlicensed Plumber
Going with an unlicensed handyman might seem like a cheap option. But if things go wrong a botched repair, property damage, or worse you’ll be left covering the costs. And in some cases, your home insurance won’t help if unlicensed work was the cause.
