On a bad day, you can encounter plumbing problems such as a leaky toilet, a clogged sink, or a burst water pipe. It is when any of these occurrences happen that you realize why it is essential to always have a plumber on standby to help you.

Major plumbing emergencies aside, you may be interested in doing simple DIY plumbing jobs such as replacing a showerhead, cleaning a bathroom drain, tightening a loose pipe joint, and general maintenance of plumbing systems. Even for such tasks that appear simple, you may need the help of a plumber. 

Plumbers also face problems that are like those that customers face. As a plumber, getting clients every day may be somewhat challenging unless every resident in your area of operation has your contact information. 

iPlumber, therefore, becomes as a reliable solution for connecting residents and plumbers in Houston and the adjacent areas. Learn more about the app, its features, the things that you can do using the app, the areas served by the app, and how to download and make use of the app.

• Providing a platform where licensed plumbers can create their profiles, become visible to more residents, and get more clients by providing the required services.

The app’s features

 

• Video call capability: As a resident, you have the benefit of being able to show a plumber the details of the problem that you would like them to help you solve. For example, if you are trying to replace a faucet, you can show your plumber the exact area where you are having difficulty.

As noted above, iPlumber’s video calling feature allows you to show a plumber the problem that you are trying to resolve at any time of the day. The plumber will look at the problem and evaluate whether it is a small plumbing issue that can be fixed easily with little guidance or a more complex issue for which you will need to schedule a visit by the plumber to your home. 

Some of the plumbing problems that plumbers on iPlumber can walk you through include the detection of water leaks, minor repairs, and simple installation of various equipment, among others. 

If you schedule a plumber visit using the app, you get a discounted price. The video call capability is particularly essential if you are dealing with an emergency.
