Post your jobWhat to put in your job description
- What is wrong and where: a dripping tap, a leak under the sink, a blocked toilet.
- Whether water is leaking now, and whether you have turned it off at the stopcock.
- For new work: what you want fitted, and whether you have bought it already.
- How old the pipes and the hot water system are, if you know.
- How easy it is to reach: under a floor, behind a bath panel, in a loft.
Don't put your name, phone number or address in the description: every trade who covers your area reads it. Your name, phone, email and address go only to the trades who take the job (3 at most).
Questions to ask before you hire
- Is the price fixed, or by the hour? Is there a call-out charge?
- Will the water be off, and for how long?
- Who takes away the old parts and the waste?
- Do you have public liability insurance?
- If the job touches the boiler or a gas pipe: are you on the Gas Safe Register?
Registers and schemes to check
Plumbing that is not gas work has no legal register. Water companies run WaterSafe, a register of approved plumbers for work on your water supply. Work on a gas boiler, cooker or gas pipe must by law be done by an engineer on the Gas Safe Register. Fitting an unvented hot water cylinder needs a fitter qualified for it under the Building Regulations. We don't check this for you yet.
