How matching works

Step by step

• 1. Work out what you are dealing with The problem table on the home page sorts common problems by urgency and tells you what to do first.
• 2. Check the normal price band The cost guide gives dated ranges, so a quote does not arrive as a surprise.
• 3. Send a request (once requests open) What is wrong, your ZIP code and how to reach you. Nothing else.
• 4. It goes to one independent plumber A Boise-area plumbing contractor who covers your area and does that kind of work.
• 5. You check their license Ask for the Idaho certificate number and look it up with DOPL. It takes a few minutes.
• 6. They quote, you decide The price, the permit and the work are between you and the plumber.

Start here: match your problem, the cost guide, the permit rules and the license check.

What we do with your details

When requests open, your contact details and the description of the problem go to the specific independent plumber you are matched with, so they can contact you about that request. We do not sell them and we do not share them for marketing. The full version is in the privacy policy.

What we do not do

• Perform, supervise or guarantee plumbing work.
• Set the plumber's price or take payment for the job.
• Dispatch anyone in an emergency. If water is spreading, close the main shutoff first; the emergency page covers the rest.
