Before your plumber gets to work, there are a few important questions you should ask: 

• Are You Licensed & Insured? First off, you'll want to make sure you're hiring a licensed plumber, which guarantees they have the experience and knowledge necessary to do the job. It's also vital to find out if they're insured in case anything goes wrong. After all, you don't want any injury or disputes over the work falling back on you in the future. 
• Do You Have References? This is a great way to narrow your decision or simply confirm you're making the right one. A plumber with references is a good sign that they've left their previous customers satisfied and willing to vouch for them. 
• Can You Provide A Detailed Estimate? Estimates offer an idea of the work and the cost involved upfront, and they also provide a solid means of comparing and contrasting plumbers before choosing one. 
• What Extra Fees Do You Charge? On top of the general cost of the job, you'll want to check and see if there are any extra fees that might sneak their way into the final tally. For instance, many plumbers charge for travel time both ways, which can add up if their base of operations isn't nearby. Specialty parts might also come into play, so ask about any additional costs involved in acquiring them.  
• Does Your Service Come With Any Warranties? And then we come to guarantees and warranties, which are beneficial should anything happen after the job is done. If your plumber offers a warranty, that means they will come back and fix any problems that arise with their work, free of charge. 

Knowledge is power, and that holds especially true when hiring a plumbing contractor. One way to guarantee you'll be in good hands is to go with the experts at Miller & Humphrey Plumbing & Electric. Visit them online for more information on their services, and give them a call at (334) 347-9212.
