Why Using a Licensed Plumber for Installation Is Important

Installing plumbing fixtures might look like a simple task when you look at an online tutorial, but while doing the installation you may notice that it isn’t that simple. There is a huge difference in the final installation when you do it yourself and when you get a licensed plumber to do it. Here’s why calling a licensed plumber for installation is important. 

Expertise and Knowledge

A plumber goes through rigorous training before becoming a certified plumber. In the training, they are taught in great detail about plumbing systems, codes and regulations to ensure that they complete every installation correctly and saferly.  

As they have years of hands-on experience in handling different plumbing installations, they can help with the fitting and even identify any plumbing issues that may not be known to you.

Safety and Compliance

During plumbing installations, you must comply with local building codes and regulations. While we do these tasks ourselves we often are unaware of these codes and regulations and may violate several rules. Thus, getting a licensed plumber to do these tasks is a better option as they are well-versed with such codes and ensure that the work meets the necessary standards.

Following a DIY plumbing tutorial can lead to improper installations which can pose serious saferty risks such as bursting of pipes, water leakage, etc. With a skilled plumber, you won’t have to worry about these issues as they are well-trained and have years of experience in the field.

Long-Term Cost Savings

Initially, it may seem that hiring a plumber is much more expensive as compared to following a DIY tutorial but in the long run, their professional services can save you money. Professional plumbers ensure that your fittings are done right and don’t pose any saferty risks in the future. 

Plus plumbers use quality materials and follow the industry’s best practices to ensure that the installations are completed correctly and efficiently. This means lower chances of fixture problems arising in the future.

Advanced Tools & Warranty

Professional plumbers use advanced tools and equipment for installation, these tools facilitate the installation procedure and make the work more accurate and efficient. With their years of expertise, plumbers learn many tips and tricks which makes it easier for them to handle even complex installations. This ensures that the job is done right in one go.

Many plumbers these days offer warranties for their work, this can provide you assurance that if any issues arise post-installation then the plumber will address them at no extra cost. 

Professional Advice and Recommendations

Licensed plumbers can give expert advice on any plumbing issues you may be facing. They can recommend suitable solutions, fixtures and systems to you. Other than installation, they can also offer tips for maintaining your plumbing system and advise on what you must do to extend the lifespan of your bathroom fixtures.

Highly recommend CGC. Joseph contacted me when he would arrive, explained everything about the Kinetico install and maintenance and cleaned up the area perfectly. He also took care of another problem that was not part of the scheduled service call. Will definitely use them again.

Thourough and knowledgeable, these people have always done well since the install.

This is the 2nd home CGC has installed a water softener system, neutralizer, and Kinetico RO drinking water. The previous week we met with, Caleb at our home, at 8:15am, a trainee that was not done training, and boss man Jonathan called at 8:20am and had him to leave so Jonathan could answer our call. Jonathan arrived at 9am and we started the CGC visit over for the 2nd time. At this time we committed to purchasing the system. Jonathan scheduled our install for one week later, with an 8-noon install. We were under the impression he would be our installer. Jonathan also serviced our other home a month earlier. August 10th I received a text to confirm our scheduled appointment for Tuesday August 11th, 8-noon. I responded to the text and confirmed the appointment. I arrived on site at 8am, ready for a 8-noon install, no one showed up or call me. At 12:30pm I called to confirm our tech was still coming, and that he was ok. The office couldn’t reach the tech by phone, so at this point no guarantee. After the 2nd call to the CGC office, I was told he was going to be late, arriving at 2;45pm. At this point I felt angry that no one from CGC contacted me to let me know the new tech Caleb was sick and no coming for our installation. Horrible communication from CGC, and not a pleasant experience trying to determine what was going on. Austin arrived at 2:45pm, was a pleasure to work with and did a great job on the installation. At 8:30 pm, he completed the installation, a 12.5 hour day to have CGC to complete their commitment. How would CGC feel if they were treated how I was? Why couldn’t they call me to let me know they were going to be late? What is their protocol when an employee is sick. CGC angered me, leaving me feeling taken advantage of, after taking off from work to oversee the installation that was scheduled a week in advance, and approved the day before. Again, how would you feel if you were treated this way.

Charles did a great job troubleshooting our water softener issue. He was very through. Helped provide options to update the system.

As always Jason professional and helpful. As asset to your company.

Shane is a great asset to the team. He is very knowledgeable and thorough. Great customer service and will most definitely recommend him next time I need service from CGC Home Services. Thanks again Shane!

Charles at CGC water treatment was professional and very kind. Thank you for your promptness, honesty & kindness.

We purchased our own reverse osmosis system, and called this company to install it because it seemed like they were knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the person who installed it did not do it correctly and also failed to put the filter inside one of the reverse osmosis membranes. The tank wasn’t filling, we noticed there was an issue when we did the TDS test on it, and our tap water was showing better than the reverse osmosis faucet, which was interesting. My husband ended up going through the steps of installing and realized there were several things that weren’t done correctly. Luckily, my husband fixed it himself however it’s very unfortunate that we had to pay $611 to get this system installed incorrectly. Unfortunately when I called to relay this message to CGC, they just apologized and giggled a little. Not sure why that’s funny, but it’s alright we just know to not refer this business to any friends or family!

Jacksonville’s city punch has a god-sent healer. I had my dude Chris get me set up with the most vital water softener for this old house and let me tell you… my pipes and faucets are spewing out magical softness without the buildup. 12/10 would recommend for your home, new or old… Jacksonville residents need this to increase overall health and reduce maintenance on your home.

Michael was excellent. He explained everything perfectly. He went thru all the products and options.

Elvin was amazing! He quickly diagnosed the issue, fixed it, and then explain to me why things were doing what they were doing. More than anything I like that he explained everything and how it makes sense. Highly recommend!

Great service and knowledgeable technician.

Well, trained technician Anthony Collins Changed out resin … Rebuilt the valve system… Adjusted the water level in the tank and changed our R.O water filters… Very professional and courteous… We now have great soft water!
