Frequently asked questions

How fast can a plumber get to me?

It depends on your location, the time of day and how many calls are coming in, for example during a freeze. Ask for the expected arrival time when you call, and shut off the water while you wait.

Is the line answered 24 hours a day?

Yes. The line is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends and holidays.

How does pricing work?

The plumber sets the price based on the problem, access, parts and time of day; nights and weekends usually cost more. You hear the price before work starts and decide whether to go ahead.

How do I know the plumber is licensed?

Ask for the license number and check it on the Georgia Secretary of State licensee search. Georgia licenses Journeyman Plumbers and Master Plumbers (Class I and Class II).

Do you handle small, non-urgent plumbing jobs?

This line is for emergencies: leaks you cannot stop, backups, no water, no hot water and frozen pipes. For a slow drip or a single slow drain, a regular appointment is usually cheaper.

What should I tell you when I call?

What is happening, where the water or smell is coming from, whether the main water valve is off, and your address. This helps the plumber bring the right tools.
