What’s the #1 Mistake People Make When Choosing New York Plumbing Contractors?

May 20, 2019 by Boris Mechanical

If you live in NYC and you’re renovating your kitchen, bathroom, or utility room, you’re going to need a plumbing contractor. Finding the right pro to work with can be challenging – especially when you’re acting as your own general contractor.

The number one mistake homeowners make when having plumbing work done in their home is choosing a handyman rather than a plumbing contractor. Angie’s List points out that for specialized trades like plumbing, you really want to work with a licensed contractor. While a handyman may be able to handle the job, NYC regulations as well as most home insurance companies require the use of a licensed master plumber for most renovations and major repairs.

New York Plumbing Contractors: Make the Most of Your Budget

Save money on your home renovation project by bringing your plumbing contractor on board early in the process – ideally in the pre-construction or planning stage. Doing so will give you the advantage of your New York Plumbing Contractor’s experience and expertise. This means they can help you identify the best way to position fixtures and pipes – very important if you’re trying to keep your renovation on time and budget. Identifying any potential plumbing concerns early in the process can help you avoid having to make expensive changes later in the process.

That being said, it’s never too late to bring a plumbing contractor on board. If your renovation has already started and you need work done fast, choose an expert NYC plumbing contractor who will do whatever’s possible to keep your project moving.

You want to work with a plumbing contractor who treats you with respect, who listens to your plans and concerns, and who brings top level professional skills to your project. It’s a good best practice to choose an experienced plumbing contractor who has a reputation for excellence.
