Dan showed up right on time, and I proceeded to hammer him with a bunch of possibly unrelated symptoms that had been gradually worsening for a long time. He kept track of every issue, didn't discount anything as unimportant, and ultimately resolved everything. Initlally I was a bit concerned about running up the bill, because the diagnostic portion of the visit was complex. He never rushed. I didn't ask for a quote ahead of time, because it was evolving, and regardless, I needed it done. I need not have worried. The bill was 50% lower than I expected, and by the time he was finished I was sad to see him go. (He's just a really nice guy.) The actual work: 1. Acid wash the coil in the boiler, providing instant hot water. I was expecting this, as we have hard water, and it had been quite a few years. No surprises there. I thought we were done, but he said, no, it may not have fixed all the issues. Let's check. So we did, and... 2. He discovered that the mixing valve was shot, and replaced it, noting that this would also fix my longstanding problem of getting an initial slug of hot water when turning on the cold tap. Two other plumbers had dismissed it as something you just have to live with. "It's the way plumbing works" was the claim. Baloney. Dan was correct -- I've had no problems since. 3. One sink was still experiencing flow issues, and Dan discovered a kinked supply line, fixed it, and ensured it wouldn't happen again. Along the way, he was willing to discuss other issues, that aren't current problems, and generally explain things, and answer any questions I had. The service was superb.

David practices forensic plumbing and he is very thorough when investigating. I have a long history with different plumbers who would show up tighten a valve or replace a pipe and leave me with a recurring leak and an unsolved problem. David is the only one who really cared enough to discover...
Wow. Dan is a gem among plumbers. Prompt, professional, very honest, very knowledgeable. No BS. Inspires confidence. Very fair pricing. Dan showed up right on time, and I proceeded to hammer him with a bunch of possibly unrelated symptoms that had been gradually worsening for a long time....

"I decided to go with Cassidy because out of the 4-5 different companies I contacted, they were the first to respond in a timely manner and their dispatch fee was affordable ($79 vs >$100). The actual service they provided went well. They were on time, finished the whole project within a couple hours and were professional. However, I did remove a star from my rating because they do overprice everything. I was able to cut down my total cost by >$300 by just buying my own supplies (ex: water faucet, basket strainer, faucet aerator, etc.). They were going to charge me $125 for something I was able to get for $4 and fix on my own, which I thought was ridiculous. Overall, I would recommend because they made the whole process go smoothly but I would just be aware of their pricing and make sure they don't trip you off."

FAQs for plumbing handyman service projects in New Milford, CT
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.
Do you have any before and after photos of your work?
How long have you been doing this kind of work?
Do you clean up and dispose of waste when the job is finished?
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.
