Frequently Asked Questions
How should I compare drain-cleaning or repair quotes?
Ask each provider to identify the affected pipe section, proposed inspection or clearing method and any restoration work. Request the same scope and ask what happens if the initial work does not resolve the problem.
Who should assess a suspected slab leak?
Describe the observed symptoms and request an assessment from a provider qualified for the proposed work. Ask how the leak location and repair method will be established before approving demolition or replacement.
How should I compare emergency service?
Ask the local office for its available appointment, dispatch charge and terms before booking. Confirm whether the proposed visit covers diagnosis, temporary measures or the final repair.
What should I check in the repair agreement?
Read the specified work, exclusions, payment terms and the process for reporting a problem after completion. Ask for clarification before accepting the proposal.
