The Trusted Name in Plumbing Service Referrals

Experienced

Plumbers on the Handy platform have experience in fixing all the common (and uncommon) plumbing problems that plague homes. Whether you’ve got a water heater leaking, a clogged toilet, or a blocked drain, chances are that your plumber will have seen and dealt with a similar job before. When you use the Handy app or website, you’ll be connected to experienced plumbers who’ll know exactly what to do, no matter how big or small the job might be.

Skilled and Capable

When you book an affordable plumber, whether it's to fix a broken boiler or to unclog a drain, you want to know they're skilled enough for the task at hand. Nothing is worse than sending an amateur with a wrench to look at your pipes. Odds are, there will be more damage than when they started. All plumbers on the Handy platform are vetted, verified, and screened way before they arrive at your home, so you can be sure that they're the right person for the job. 

Reliable

There are few things worse than waiting for a plumber after being given an 8 hour time window, while your sink is spouting water all over the carpet or your toilet is overflowing. Using the Handy platform, you can arrange an exact time for your plumber to arrive, which means you don’t have to take an entire day off of work to sit around and wait for them. The plumbers on the Handy platform have seen it all and they have the ratings and reviews to prove it.  We’ll match the details of your job with a reliable plumber in your area before you know it.

Flexible

The Handy customer service team is online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you have any concerns either before, during, or after your job, someone will be in contact with you to help make things right. No matter how big or small your job is, we’re confident that you’ll be satisfied by the affordable plumbers on the Handy platform. When you book plumbing services through Handy, you’re in charge of when the work gets done. And should your situation change, you can always cancel or reschedule your appointment with at least to 24 hours’ notice.

The Best Plumbing Service Referral Agency

The Best Plumbers Bring the Right Equipment

When you book a plumber using the Handy platform for water heater installation, to unclog a toilet, or to clean out your drains, they’ll always arrive with the equipment they’ll need to do a great job. It’s in their interest as much as it’s in yours to complete every job quickly, professionally, and efficiently. That’s why when they show up, they’ll be prepared for whatever curveballs your plumbing repairs may throw at them. When you use the Handy platform to book the best plumbers, you’ll be asked to input a few details about the plumbing repair job. Using that information, your chosen plumbing services provider will be able to prepare in advance and ensure they bring everything they need.

The Importance of Plumbing Expertise

Even attempting to fix your plumbing repairs on your own without proper knowledge can cause massive problems down the line. Book your plumber using the Handy platform and you’ll be matched with plumbers who know just what they’re doing. Experienced and practiced in their craft, they’ll provide you with the best job at a price that won’t break the bank. When you use Handy to find cheap plumbers, you can rest assured that you’ll be connected with a capable plumbing service who will get your job done without you having to worry about how much a plumber costs ever again.

Keep Your Home Safe

With experience and expertise, your plumbers will be able to inspect your plumbing repairs and fixtures and identify where any problems may have originated. With the right tools on hand, they’ll be able to fix the problem, right there and then. If your water heater has triggered a full-blown flood, they’ll know exactly how and where to shut off the water supply. Should the flood be the result of a burst pipe, they’ll be able to change it before it can do any additional damage. Expert, cheap, and local plumbers know a lot about their craft that we do not, and the Handy platform gives you the opportunity to book them and benefit from their knowledge and ability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I need tools or will my plumbing professional bring them?

Professionals always come prepared with the proper tools and supplies to get your job done right. However, the more detail you can provide your professional about your plumbing repairs in advance, the better.  Please make sure you let your plumber know any specifics ahead of time.

When should I expect my professional to get in touch with me?

After your booking is confirmed, Handy will send you confirmation emails and messages about your booking and professional. You can contact your professional at any time with questions or concerns you might have.

Carlos asked some opening questions before looking at the problem. Carlos even hung out to see if the problem was fixed for sure! Thanks!

Thank you to Mr. Nate for a job well done. He was courteous and took the time to explain the problem to me. Very conscienteous, too.

Stan done a good job and the shower works perfectly. He even obtained a part from the local hardware store. Would use again.

Very professional. Sorted our main issue (and reason for booking) so fast he took it upon himself to fix all our other minor issues!

There were 2 chores -- Todd was excellent on the hardest one -- but the toilets leak more than before. Going to schedule him again for that.

Joey F.

Jack was outstanding. He was prompt, and a wonderful problem solver. He was very professional and knowledgable of his job! Thanks.

Violet G.

Ian did a great job fixing the water valve in my unit. He was very professional. He showed up on time and fixed the problem very quickly. Moreover, he also helped me to fix the toilet tank flapper which wasn't in the original requirement. Thanks Ian!

Michael S.

Juan was absolutely amazing. Helped us with a somewhat complex plumbing project to relocate our washing machine. Hands down, the best ever!

Dorothee d.

Great! Yousif is very nice, very professional and fixed our issue perfectly. However, the job only took 45 mins so 2-hour price is steep!!
