1.2k+ We hired Julio to unclog our under-the-sink plumbing. He was prompt, immediately diagnosed the problem, and fixed the problem in short order. Julio is very knowledgeable, personable, and polite, and the fee for the work was very reasonable. We got a couple of other estimates for the work....
Triumph PlumbingMy complaint was the water collected in the sink and was not quickly running down the pipe but would back up and drain very slowly. An hour later, he was done, billed me, and was on his way.
ARS / Rescue Rooter Bay East AreaWe called late on a Sunday afternoon and they sent someone out a couple of hours later. Our sink was completely clogged and the drain plug couldn't be reached from the outside of the house. The plumber (I apologize, it has been a few weeks and I can't remember his name) found the clog by...

Signature Roofing IncIt was recommended from an air quality specialist that I might have a leak behind the shower worth examining. I called Caccia and they said someone could come out the next day. James showed up a little early. I received a call from dispatch prior to his arrival to confirm if this would be...
James Caccia Plumbing IncThe repair was completed within 35 minutes of me making the call. Personable, professional guy, quick well done repair...couldn't ask for a much better experience, really!
Access under the sink is a bit tricky, but the repair man jumped right in without much effort. The hose connection was stuck, with patience, he managed to break the connection and unclog the hose. He was reluctant to connect the brass fitting for the ice maker hose, the combination of metal...
ATLAS PLUMBING & ROOTERDead circulation pump on a 15+ year old Viking d/w that came with the house we bought. Time for a new one, even in Mike's estimation, so he didn't do the repair. But I was impressed with his diagnostic work, he was prompt, neat, professional, and thorough. I don't want to see my appliance...
This was a rental unit. The first time they came didn't fix the problem. I wasn't on site either. They spoke with the tenant directly. The original repair cost somewhere between $100-200. Don't recall. This visit was under warranty. I showed up and worked with the technician directly. ...

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.
