Returning home to a leaking pipe or a dysfunctional faucet can be a harrowing experience. Plumbing issues are a homeowner’s worst nightmare. If not addressed in a timely manner, a plumbing issue can result in flooding and moisture. Many homeowners ignore plumbing issues until they snowball into a major problem. Turning a blind eye to the problem is never the solution. If you’re pinned down by a plumbing issue, consult a plumbing contractor in Sandy Springs.Hiring just any other plumber for the job, however, won’t do. There are many amateurs in the market who masquerade as ‘experts’. You need to avoid these service providers at all costs. Here are some tips that you can follow to find a trustworthy emergency plumber in Sandy Springs.
Every homeowner needs plumbing services at some point. Ask your neighbors, family members, friends, and colleagues who hired a contractor for a plumbing job recently to provide recommendations. Ask them why they recommend hiring a particular plumber. Check out their pictures before and after the job was completed.
The Internet is a goldmine of information. Whether you are planning to avail sewer line repair service in Sandy Springs or have a simple job such as fixing a leaking faucet, not searching the Internet is a cardinal sin. Join a forum that discusses plumbers in your locality/city. Visit the websites of plumbers in your city. Go through testimonials, reviews, and ratings. To find the ranking of contractors in your area, visit the website of the Better Business Bureau and reputable plumbing associations.
Once you have narrowed down your search, ask at least three contractors to send their best quote or estimate for your job. When comparing quotes, remember to take a look at the breakdown of costs. Make sure there are no hidden costs. If you do not understand a particular cost component, call up the contractor’s office.
Before visiting a contractor, make an appointment. During your visit to a contractor’s office, take a look at the way their staff treats customers. Ask the contractor questions related to their experience, the licenses they hold, and their insurance coverage. Take a look at the contractor’s portfolio. Ask them to provide references.
You cannot just take everything that a contractor says on face value. To find out whether your preferred contractor holds a valid license, call the office of the local licensing authority. Enquire whether there are any complaints against the professional. Talk to the references provided by the contractor. Ask them how likely they are to recommend the contractor.

I’ve known Alan, the owner of Fletch-Barney Plumbing, for many years and I use them for all of my plumbing needs. In property management, time and money are key concerns for us. Fletch-Barney comes when they are called and are fair and honest in their pricing. Their Pipe Lining technology has allowed the properties where it has been used at, to not only save time and money, but has eliminated the destruction to the property that conventional digging and replacement causes.
I called Fletch-Barney and they saved me over $2000! I called Alan and they were at my house within the hour. Their new technology saved us from digging up our front yard and drive way. Less invasive and less expensive is the way to go. They did a great job and I will be using them whenever I have another issue!
Thanks Alan!
Recently my sewer line backed up and created a huge mess. It turned out that the sewer line was broken under my driveway and the only solution was to tear it up along with all of my new landscaping! I called Fletch-Barney and they were able to repair the line under the driveway using the “Cured In Place” process without damaging my driveway or removing my landscaping. This was a great option for me and it saved me thousands of dollars too!”
