Ask yourself
a question. When buying or selling a house, would you consider doing so without
using the professional services of a solicitor? The answer is…probably not.
Unless you know exactly what you're doing, it's a little like walking into a
minefield.
The same is
true when you have a plumbing
problem
and have to choose to call plumber. It is not simply a routine call. If you don't know much about plumbing and you need
some plumbing work done, how do you judge one plumber against another?
Price
Don’t make
your decision on price alone. This can prove disastrous as many homeowners
regularly find out to their cost. 24 Plumbing London repair thousand plumbing disasters left from inexperienced plumbers.
Some plumbing companies are often more interested in getting upfront money (through
asking you to leave card details upfront) and when this happen many
homeowners ending up paying unrealistically high fees very often for
unfinished jobs . Our strict policy is that we get paid when the job is done
and our customer is happy but never upfront.
Remember,
you are buying a service not a product. A service is intangible. Paying the
lowest price for a service does not mean you are certain to receive good value
and obtain a satisfactory result.
Be guided by
the following quote from John Ruskin...
'It's unwise
to pay too much, but it's unwise to pay too little. When you pay too much you
lose a little money, that is all. When you pay too little you sometimes lose
everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing you
bought it to do.
Reliability
Very often there's no time to carry out
extensive research to find exactly the right plumber for the job, at the best
price, because you are in a tearing hurry. A burst pipe, flood from toilet or
broken tap is usually an extremely stressful situation when you need help fast!
The last thing you need in an
emergency is a tradesman who makes the situation worse because he or she isn't
properly trained or equipped. Nor do you need to pay inflated prices just
because you are desperate for help, no matter what it costs..
