Find or Refer a Contractor in Tyler

Plumbers in Tyler TX

June 16th, 2010

When deciding on a plumber in Tyler you may have run into some of the issues I have.

Quite a few seasoned Tyler TX plumbing companies are basically one man companies. These guys are very good at what they do and often have settled on new construction only.

Why new construction only? The reason is simply because it is easier and less of a headache.

Consider that many a Tyler TX home owner is of the high maintenance type. These home owners will complain and gripe about every little tear and rip in their tile and drywall.

Keep in mind that your plumber is not a drywall contractor and many times a demolition of a wall is needed to complete a plumbing job behind a wall.

Of course most plumbers can refer you to a contractor capable of coming in after the plumbing job and mudding the damaged drywall, texturing, and then painting over it to match the rest of the wall.

Most plumbers in Tyler will want to know from the outset that if they will be doing your plumbing job in an already built house that you will not be a bad customer.

In my opinion and what I do in my house is hire contractors that do handy man work. These type of contractors are not licensed plumbers but they also cost about three times cheaper as well.

The best thing about a handy man contractor is that  they are happy and willing to do your plumbing work even though it is not a new construction job.

New construction is much easier simply because the wall and drywall has not been constructed yet. The plumber can lay out pipe, PVC, and insert knobs and cutoffs with little effort.

For many a seasoned plumber it may have been several years since they have had to pull down an old piece of drywall to find a leak.

Rather than pay $75 – $90 an hour for a licensed plumber in Tyler Texas to complete your job take up our suggestion and hire a handy man.
