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>

Usually, he or his crew does most of the work, but he will also hire subcontractors if it's urgent. He is always very responsive and provides top-shelf work. He is a good guy to know. I would definitely recommend Black and White Construction.

Salesman lied about the process. They are not as advertised "half the price" of a plumber when actually a local plumber subcontractor does the work. They are about twice the price of a plumber. Turn on your voice recorder when talking with the salesman.
