Should plumbers be certified or licensed?

<div>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.

Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: <ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul> Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

Tony W. and Don P. Showed up on time and were professional, friendly, smart, and answered questions and concerns. The Job was completed on time and corrected Craft's shortcut installation that could have caused an explosion, fire and death. We were lucky to have Wahl find the problems.

The guy left a note on the sink telling me that he "couldn't get the spray hose to stop dripping." It was brand new. Who does that?!?!?

Nick's is a very casually run business. Work is done well, but not always in as timely a fashion as one would like. The workers are polite and competent. Nick has a very outgoing personality and is fun to talk to, but he doesn't do the smaller jobs himself. His company replaced my undermount...

Erik stuck with us from beginning to end. He got along well with the college students I hired and placed under his direction. And he was able to work well with the experienced subcontractors who constructed the project specialty work. I can recommend him only in the strongest possible way!
