Hiring Licensed and Insured Plumbers
When it comes to maintaining your home’s plumbing system, hiring the right professional is crucial. Opting for licensed and insured plumbers ensures that you receive high-quality service and protection. Here’s why choosing a licensed and insured plumber is so important:
1. Guaranteed Expertise and Training
Licensed plumbers have undergone rigorous training and passed necessary exams to obtain their licenses. This certification ensures that they have the required knowledge and skills to handle various plumbing tasks safely and effectively. A licensed plumber stays updated with the latest industry standards and local codes, ensuring that your plumbing work is compliant with regulations (FieldEdge) (ServiceTitan).
2. Insurance Provides Protection
Hiring an insured plumber protects both you and the plumber in case of accidents or damages. If an uninsured plumber causes damage to your property or gets injured while working, you could be held liable for the costs. Insurance covers these risks, providing peace of mind and financial protection. This is particularly crucial for extensive plumbing jobs that involve significant investment (Field Camp).
3. Quality Workmanship and Reliability
Licensed plumbers are held to high professional standards, ensuring that they deliver quality workmanship. They follow industry best practices, use the right tools and materials, and adhere to safety protocols. This reliability reduces the chances of recurring problems and ensures that the job is done right the first time (Field Camp) (The Plumbing Zone).
4. Adherence to Local Building Codes
Plumbing work must comply with local building codes and regulations. Licensed plumbers are familiar with these requirements and ensure that their work meets all legal standards. This compliance is essential for safety and can prevent future legal issues, especially if you plan to sell your property (ServiceTitan) (The Plumbing Zone).
5. Access to Latest Technologies and Techniques
Licensed plumbers often have access to the latest plumbing technologies and techniques. Their ongoing education and training keep them abreast of new developments in the industry, allowing them to offer more efficient and effective solutions. This expertise can result in cost savings and improved functionality for your plumbing system (ServiceTitan).
6. Trust and Professionalism
Licensed and insured plumbers are bound by a professional code of ethics. This commitment ensures that they conduct their business with integrity, honesty, and transparency. When you hire a licensed professional, you can trust that they will provide accurate estimates, honor warranties, and offer reliable service (Field Camp) (The Plumbing Zone).
Hiring licensed and insured plumbers is not just about compliance; it’s about ensuring that your home’s plumbing system is in capable hands. These professionals bring expertise, reliability, and protection, providing peace of mind and high-quality service. Next time you face a plumbing issue, make sure to choose a licensed and insured plumber to safeguard your investment and well-being.

Benefits of Installing a Water Softener
Hard water can cause a range of issues in your home, from appliance damage to dry skin. Installing a water softener can alleviate these problems and provide numerous benefits. Putman and Son’s Plumbing is here to explain why you should consider adding a water softener to your plumbing system.
What is Hard Water? Hard water contains high levels of calcium and magnesium, which can lead to mineral buildup in your pipes, appliances, and fixtures. This buildup reduces efficiency and can cause damage over time.
Benefits of a Water Softener:
- Extended Appliance Lifespan: Water softeners reduce mineral buildup in appliances like dishwashers and washing machines, extending their lifespan and improving efficiency.
- Better Skin and Hair: Soft water is gentler on your skin and hair, reducing dryness and irritation.
- Cleaner Dishes and Laundry: Soft water prevents soap scum and mineral deposits, resulting in cleaner dishes and brighter laundry.
- Cost Savings: By reducing scale buildup, water softeners can lower energy bills and maintenance costs for your plumbing system.
Our Water Softener Services: At Putman and Son’s Plumbing, we offer professional water softener installation and maintenance services. Our team can assess your water quality and recommend the best system for your needs.
Investing in a water softener can improve your home’s water quality and provide numerous long-term benefits. Contact Putman and Son’s Plumbing today to learn more about our water softener services and how we can help you enjoy the advantages of soft water.
Choosing the Right Water Heater
Choosing the right water heater for your home is essential for comfort and efficiency. Putman and Son’s Plumbing is here to guide you through the process, ensuring you make an informed decision that meets your needs and budget.
Types of Water Heaters:
- Tankless Water Heaters: These heaters provide hot water on demand, are energy-efficient, and take up less space. They’re ideal for smaller households or those looking to reduce their energy consumption.
- Storage Tank Water Heaters: These are the most common type and store a large amount of hot water for immediate use. They’re suitable for larger households with higher hot water demands.
- Heat Pump Water Heaters: These are highly energy-efficient as they use electricity to move heat from the air or ground to heat the water. They’re best for homes in moderate to warm climates.
- Solar Water Heaters: These heaters use solar panels to capture and convert sunlight into energy to heat water. They’re an eco-friendly option, though initial installation costs can be high.
Factors to Consider:
- Household Size: Consider the number of people in your household and their hot water usage habits.
- Energy Efficiency: Look for water heaters with high energy efficiency ratings to save on utility bills.
- Cost: Factor in both the upfront cost and the long-term savings on energy bills.
- Space: Determine the available space for installation and whether a tankless or tank water heater is more suitable.
