Did you know that in 1760, King George the second died from falling off a toilet? Indoor plumbing dates back to at least 2,500 BCA. Americans call the toilet the John owing to the inventor of the flushing toilet, Sir John Harington. Plumbing has come a long way since all of these things, but plumbing problems still pop up in even the most well maintained of homes. What steps can you take when you need to find reliable and knowledgeable Arlington plumbing service?

First, get a list of potential plumbers. To get this list, talk to your friends and family about what Arlington plumbing services they have used. Ask them who they would recommend, as well as which companies were unreliable or too expensive. Also look up reviews online, since these can often be a good indication of what type of service the average customer experiences.

Two, use someone who has been a part of the community for a while, if you can. Someone who has been established in one place can not only give you references to past Arlington plumbing jobs they have done, but they also have an incentive in keeping you happy, since you can refer them back to your own friends and family if their plumbing has issues.

Three, remember that there are two basic types of plumber service. One is installation plumbing, and there are the plumbers who work on new homes and buildings and install entire systems. The other are plumbers who fix issues and repair or install minor parts rather than entire water systems.

Four, get estimates from all the plumbers you are considering. If they can not do an in house estimate, ask the Fairfax plumbing company if they can give you an estimate over the phone based on your description of the problem.

Fifth, trust your gut! if there is something that seems off to you about your plumbing Springfield company, do not be afraid to say never mind and hire someone else.

Good luck finding a responsible Arlington plumbing company!
