FAQs
Why should I hire a licensed plumber in Cleveland?
Ohio law requires anyone performing residential or commercial plumbing work valued at more than $1,000 to hold an Ohio Plumbing License. A licensed plumber has passed state exams, carries mandatory insurance, and follows local Cleveland and Cuyahoga County codes. This protects you from unsafe workmanship, potential fines for code violations, and voided manufacturer warranties. In short, hiring a licensed professional safeguards your property, health, and investment.
What plumbing services do your licensed plumbers provide in the Cleveland area?
Our team handles the full spectrum of residential and light-commercial plumbing, including fixture repair and replacement, water‐heater installation (tank and tankless), sewer and drain cleaning, hydro-jetting, sump pump installation, leak detection, gas line service, backflow prevention testing, bathroom and kitchen remodel rough-ins, and code compliance corrections. We also offer preventative maintenance programs tailored to Cleveland’s aging housing stock and lake-effect climate.
How quickly can you respond to a plumbing emergency in Cleveland?
We have technicians on standby 24/7. For customers within Cleveland city limits, our average arrival time is 60–90 minutes, even during nights, weekends, and holidays. Suburbs such as Lakewood, Parma, and Shaker Heights typically see a 90-minute maximum response window. Our GPS-dispatched vans are stocked with common repair parts so most emergencies—burst pipes, sewer backups, failed water heaters—are resolved in a single visit.
Are your Cleveland plumbers insured and bonded?
Yes. Every plumber we send to your home or business is not only state-licensed but also fully insured with a minimum of $1 million in general liability coverage and workers’ compensation. We are bonded through the City of Cleveland Building & Housing Department as required for permit work. Proof of insurance and bonding can be emailed to you or presented onsite upon request.
What kind of warranty do you offer on plumbing work?
Labor on standard repairs is warrantied for one year. Installations of new fixtures, water heaters, or repiped lines carry a two-year workmanship warranty, and we register manufacturer warranties (often 6–12 years on water heaters) on your behalf. Drain cleaning includes a 90-day clear-line guarantee. If a covered issue recurs within the warranty period, we return at no charge—parts, labor, and trip fees included.
How much does it cost to hire a licensed plumber in Cleveland?
Service call fees begin at $69, which is waived when you approve the recommended repair. Typical flat-rate pricing is $175–$275 for toilet repairs, $275–$450 for garbage disposal replacement, $850–$1,500 for standard 40- to 50-gallon water-heater replacement (including haul-away and permits), and $125–$325 for main-line drain cleaning. We provide written, upfront estimates before work begins, accept major credit cards, offer 0% financing on jobs over $1,000, and never bill for overtime after the quote is signed.
