What to ask any plumber before you hire
Ask for a written quote before any work starts. It should name the job, the parts, and what happens if access is harder than it looked.
Get the price in writingAsk for their NC license number and an insurance certificate. The state board lists plumbing licenses at nclicensing.org. We don't hold or check those.

Do you charge extra for nights, weekends, or holidays?

Do you guarantee your work?
Ask the plumber what they stand behind, in writing, before you hire.
