What we can provide
We can supply detailed invoices, photos before and after, and permit details to support an application.
Program terms change. Always check the current rules before booking work you expect to be reimbursed for.
Keep a folder with the permit, the invoice, product spec sheets and dated photos. Insurers often ask for the same documents when you renew a policy.
Rather hand it over? Our plumbers handle emergency plumber and hydro jetting along with everything else on our residential plumbing list.
Questions we get
Is it too late if the valve is already in?
Possibly. Several programs insist on approval before work begins, so ask first.
