They were schedule to come between 10AM and noon. They called me at 11AM to say they were running late and that they would be there in another 1 1/ 2 hours (by 12:30PM), they did not arrive, so I called them back at 2PM at which time I was told they'd be at my house by 2:30. The plumber finally arrived at 3:00. I had a 3:00pm appt so could not be there for the repair work. I asked the tenant in the guest house to let the plumber in and pay him with my credit card. I was never given any information about their hourly rate nor was I given an estimate of the cost of the repair work. As stated above, the plumber repaired 2 sinks, replacing a washer in one, and replacing the basket strainer in the other. Total time worked was 45 min. I was charged $508. I complained directly to the company, and they stated that they charged by the type of repair they do regardless of the time it takes them to make the repair. They said I was charged the price listed in their \"book\" and they refused to negotiate the charge. They did offer me an additional 15% discount for being late but refused to negotiate the price of the repair. I am especially aggrevated with this experience because I'm a repeat customer. Approximately 2 years ago, I had extensive plumbing work done on the sewage pipes under my house and paid this vender $4100 dollars.

"Very well. Ron, the technician arrived promptly. He did say that he may not be able to solve the problem on his home because the drain pipe was bigger than what he was equipped for, but he ended up managing with the smaller machine that he had. Next time, I would recommend verifying the pipe size with the client beforehand, but no harm done and problem solved! The company was very professional and efficient."

FAQs for sink repair projects in Santa Monica, CA
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
