FAQs
How does your transparent pricing model work for plumbing services in Maynardville?
We use an upfront, flat-rate pricing system. After assessing your plumbing issue on-site, the technician provides a written, itemized quote showing labor, materials, taxes, and any applicable discounts. You see the full cost before work begins, and that price will not change unless you request additional services. No hourly surprises or hidden fees—just one clear number.
Do you charge a service call or trip fee within Maynardville city limits?
No. All addresses inside Maynardville’s city limits and most of Union County are covered by our free service-call policy. The technician’s travel time, fuel, and vehicle costs are built into our flat-rate structure, so the initial visit and quote cost you nothing. If you’re outside our primary zone, we’ll tell you the nominal mileage surcharge before dispatching.
Are emergency or after-hours plumbing rates higher?
Yes, but you’ll still know the exact cost in advance. For calls after 6 p.m., weekends, or holidays, we add a clearly stated emergency surcharge to our flat rate. It covers overtime pay and rapid dispatch logistics. The surcharge is listed separately on your quote, so you can decide whether to proceed. If it’s safe to wait, we’ll schedule you for the next regular time slot at the standard rate.
Will the price change if your plumber finds additional problems after starting the job?
Only with your approval. Our technicians perform a full diagnostic before quoting, but occasionally hidden issues appear (e.g., corroded pipe behind a wall). If that happens, we stop work, explain the findings, and present a revised written quote. Work continues only after you sign off, ensuring you stay in control of the budget at every step.
What forms of payment and financing do you offer?
We accept cash, checks, all major credit cards, and contactless payments like Apple Pay and Google Pay. For repairs over $500, we partner with trusted lenders to offer 6-, 12-, and 18-month financing plans with competitive APRs. There are no extra “processing” or “convenience” fees for using credit or financing—what you see on the quote is what you pay.
Are parts and labor guaranteed, and is that guarantee included in the quoted price?
Absolutely. Every repair or installation comes with a 1-year workmanship guarantee and the manufacturer’s parts warranty—both are already factored into the flat rate you receive. If a covered issue recurs within that period, we’ll return to fix it at no additional charge. There are no deductible or call-out fees during the warranty window.
