When Selecting a Plumbing Company in the Hampton Roads Area to Work for You
Not every plumber is the right fit for every job, and the difference usually shows up long before the work starts — in how a company answers the phone, explains a quote, and stands behind what they finish. Here’s what to actually ask before you hire someone, and how Premier Plumbing answers each one.

Ask What the Average Turnaround Time Is
Premier Plumbing completes most service work the same day. For remodels or larger projects, we work efficiently without cutting corners on quality, and we’re upfront about realistic timelines from the start — not optimistic estimates that slip once the job is underway. If you’re working around a tight schedule, tell us, and we’ll build the plan around it.
Ask If They Have the Proper Equipment for the Job
Premier Plumbing uses the latest equipment and safety devices to complete your project quickly and safely, including video inspection equipment for sewer and water line diagnostics, so we’re identifying the actual problem before we start digging or cutting into anything.
Ask About Pricing Before Any Work Begins
We don’t charge by the hour, and we don’t let a job balloon past the number we quoted you. Premier Plumbing prices by the job, so you know the cost before we start — not after we’ve already opened a wall. If something unexpected turns up mid-job, we’ll explain it and get your approval before doing anything that changes the price.
Ask If They Have Insurance
Premier Plumbing is fully insured for your peace of mind. We carry workers’ compensation and liability insurance, which matters more than most homeowners realize: if an uninsured contractor gets hurt on your property, or damages something during the job, you can be the one left covering the cost. Ask to see proof of insurance from anyone working in your home — a company confident in their coverage will show it without hesitation.
Ask If They’re Actually Licensed
Premier Plumbing is a licensed contractor and pulls all required municipal and state permits for the work we do. Skipping permits might look like a way to save money upfront, but unpermitted work can cause real problems later — from failed home inspections at resale to insurance claims that get denied because the work was never properly documented.
Ask What Happens If Something Goes Wrong After the Job
We stand behind our work. If something we installed or repaired fails due to our workmanship, we make it right — that’s what separates a company that’s planning to be here next year from one that’s just trying to close today’s job.
