Jobs we will not put a number on

Not evasion — these genuinely cannot be priced from a description, and a number now would be a number we later had to take back. Each one says what decides it.

Going tankless

Going tankless depends on the gas supply, the venting and the electrical. All three change the job.

Sump pump installed

Where the discharge runs decides most of this price.

A leak under the slab

Under a slab, reaching the leak is most of the cost, and nobody knows that until they look.

Repiping the property

A repipe depends entirely on the layout and on the finishes we have to open up.

Replacing cast iron drains

Nobody can price cast iron before the camera goes in. We have seen the same age of pipe run from serviceable to failed.

Sewer line work

Sewer work runs from a spot repair to an open trench — twenty times the price, decided by what the camera finds.

Remodel plumbing

On a remodel the scope is the job. We price it from what you are planning.

New construction plumbing

New construction is priced from the drawings.

What moves the price

The ranges above are for a straightforward job in a house in Miami-Dade. These are the things that shift it, and the estimator asks about each one.

• Condo or high-rise accessA high floor, a service elevator to book and a building engineer to clear the work with all add time before anyone touches a pipe.
• Emergency call-outOut of hours, at short notice, with someone standing in water. It costs more and it is worth more.
• Outside Miami-DadeBroward and further north adds travel to every visit, so planned work only.
• Older propertyPre-1975 stock widens the range in both directions. What is behind the wall decides the job, and cast iron and galvanized supply rarely fail tidily.
• You are supplying the partsSupply your own fixture and the price comes down by what we would have charged for it. We will still tell you honestly whether it is any good.

How we arrived at these

We took published Miami and national price guides for each job, then set our band at the market rate less ten percent. That is the rule and it does not move. Where a job is genuinely unpriceable from a description, it gets a visit instead of a number.
