When to Call a Handyman vs. a Licensed Plumber

Understanding the difference can save you significant money while ensuring your plumbing issue is handled appropriately. For simple repairs like faucet dripping, running toilets, clogged drains, and under-sink leaks, a handyman is the perfect choice—quick fix at lower cost.

For major water line issues, septic system work, or new plumbing pipe installations, a licensed plumber is required by code. We're always upfront about what's within our scope and will recommend a licensed plumber when the job calls for it.

Minor Plumbing Services We Provide

Dripping Faucets

A single dripping faucet can waste thousands of gallons annually. We quickly identify the cause—whether it's a worn washer, corroded valve seat, or cartridge issue—and fix it to save you money on water bills.

Running Toilets

A constantly running toilet is one of the most common plumbing issues. Usually caused by a faulty flapper or fill valve, these repairs are quick, affordable, and prevent significant water waste.

Clogged Drains

Whether it's a slow-draining sink, tub, or shower, we use safe and effective methods to clear blockages caused by hair, soap buildup, and debris without damaging your pipes.

Leaky Pipes Under Sink

Leaks under sinks are often simple fixes involving P-trap replacement or loose connections. We identify the source and seal the leak to prevent water damage and mold growth.

Low Water Pressure

Reduced water pressure can result from mineral buildup, clogs, or valve issues. We diagnose the problem and restore proper water flow throughout your home.

Water Heater Issues

From sediment flushing to temperature adjustments, we handle routine water heater maintenance and minor repairs that extend the lifespan of your system.

Minor Plumbing FAQs

How much does minor plumbing repair typically cost?

Minor plumbing repairs typically range from $150 to $400, depending on the issue and parts needed. Our rates are significantly lower than licensed plumbers, who charge $200-$400+ per hour. We provide free estimates before beginning work, so you'll always know the cost upfront.

Can you fix my leaky faucet the same day?

In most cases, yes! Many minor plumbing issues like faucet repairs, running toilets, and simple drain clogs can be fixed same-day. We offer convenient scheduling and work to accommodate your availability whenever possible.

What should I do about a leak under my sink?

First, place a bucket under the leak to catch water and prevent damage. Then call us right away. Most under-sink leaks are caused by loose connections or a faulty P-trap, which are quick and inexpensive fixes. Delaying the repair risks water damage, mold, and structural issues.

Is a dripping faucet worth fixing?

Absolutely! A faucet dripping just once per second wastes over 3,000 gallons of water annually, adding $35+ to your water bill. The repair typically costs $150-$250, so it pays for itself within months. Plus, you'll save water and reduce environmental impact.

How do I know if I need a handyman or licensed plumber?

Call us first! We can assess your plumbing issue and provide honest advice. For simple repairs like faucet fixes, toilet adjustments, or drain cleaning, a handyman is perfect. If your issue requires new plumbing pipe installations, involves the main water line, or affects septic systems, we'll recommend a licensed plumber.

Do you provide emergency plumbing service?

We offer same-day and next-day appointments for most issues. While we don't advertise emergency service, we do our best to accommodate urgent situations. Call us to discuss your needs.
