How to choose well

1. Licensing first. Any work touching the PUB water main — heaters, new connections, concealed re-piping — legally needs a PUB-Licensed Plumber.
2. Ask for the price before work starts — reputable plumbers quote upfront and waive the call-out fee if you proceed.
3. Reviews with specifics beat star counts. Look for reviews that mention your job type and how problems were handled — not just "good service".
4. Itemised quotes only. A lump-sum quote is where surprises hide. Line items let you compare fairly across companies.
5. Never pay fully upfront. Deposit, progressive payments, and a retention until the work is done and checked.

What it should cost

Common jobs run S$60–S$200 (chokes, taps) to S$1,500–S$4,200 (relocating wet points). For the full pricing breakdown, see our plumbers cost guide.
