Real cost of the work

Do you know what real cost of the plumbing work is if you go through a pay by call!? Lets say you need to replace a garbage disposar under the kitchen sink. You open the computer, check on Google and find the site who you belive it is worth the trust. You gave your name, other details ask by the site and at the end you bring the reason for what you are there.At the end you click the magical button and you wait.
Now this is how it works. The site operator will contact one, two or three plumbing companies which will start to call you. Now is a question of time, is like a horse race between those. Let's say you make deal withone of them abd the cost is  X. And this might be OK for you. Now is something which you don't know. The Company who owns the site has a contract with all three plumbing Companies which for the service provided pays somewhere between 7 and 15%. Where that cost goes? In you bill. So the real cost can be X minus 7 to 15% less if you go directly with one of those companies. It is worth the X price? Sometimes yes, other no. If will be to give a tip i would say it is worth to go with a company who is less popular on Internet because their cost is less with the Internet advetising which means you will pay less. Is there a rule how to chose a Plumbing Company? No, but definitely i recommend to think twice before you choose a big one for your needs. Now I wish you to make a great decision!

Summer 2017

Summer of 2017 is around the corner. Spring is almost gone. Some rains with kind of intensity in May. We just want to remind you the summer usually brings thunderstorms which creates lots of problem in the homes. Will be great if you will check with your local plumber or sewer technicians if your main sewer line is in good shape. It makes the difference after a thunderstorm. Also the sump pump and the battery backup is important to be check. The power outage will let you without electricity. The pump will not work and than to have a battery back up is very important. Are you ready for the Summer now?

After a long time

Unfortunately it has been a long time since our last post. Our company have been grown to a certain level where we consider we need to improve in order to be succesfull in the future. For that reason and only we've been out for this blog for a litle more than one month. But now we are back and we will bring more information about our activity, about the news in this wonderfull trade: PLUMBING.
   So lets start with some jokes about plumbing.

 What do you call a person who picks plums? A plumber!

 

Don't be racist, be like Mario. He's an Italian plumber, created by Japanese people, who speaks English, and looks like a Mexican

 A man at a bus station shows off pictures of his three sons to an acquaintance. “What do your boys do for a living?” asked the man.“Well the two youngest ones are both neurosurgeons,” he replied.
“What does the oldest do?”
“He’s a plumber. How else would the other two have been able to afford medical school?”

We see you next time

Spring

There is another Spring just around the corner. So far to this point is still winter in Chicago land area. I can say very cold. But all this are not important because the Spring is what we want. But are you prepare for all the rains which will come soon. Did you check if the sump pump will face the heavy rains? Did you check the main sewer line if is wide open? Is your drain tile system working? Oh, you have a flood control system and you are protected by him? I know is good to have it but it is working? Did you checked the ejector pump? I the flapper in good shape? Do you see all of this are pertinent questions and makes you to be informed about a system part of the complicated system named House. So what stop you ?

We wish all our viewers a beautiful Spring!

Home insurance

Is the home insurance a good fit for plumbing and sewer problems? Do you get the service per your expectations? Let's see. Let say you have a sewer back up in the basement and the cost, if you have to hire a company from internet or all kind of pages will be $400.00 to $500.00. This is a full service, cleaning, camera inspection and generally 6 months warranty. Now you have home insurance and the cost for the service is only $150.00. Do you think is something wrong? Where is the difference between the two services? Another exemple. The cost for a garbage disposal replacement is lets say about $450.00 if you do the work with  a plumbing company outside of the home insurance area. You have a nice 0.5 HP garbage disposal, clean work, most likely few washers change at p-trap and j-bend. Compliment from the company. If you have the work done through home insurance the cost will be $150.00? Wow! $150.00 sewer cleaning, $150.00 garbage disposal replacement. Lets move ahead. Your water heater leaks and you call local plumbing company and the cost for replacement is for 40 gallons heater about $800.00-$900.00 avarage for this kind of capacity. But of course you have hone insurance and the cost will be $150.00. Stop! Again $150.00. Now you have a question. How is this possible? Do you have probably you ask yourself same service or a better service if you have home insurance?  The only one who know the answer is YOU?
