Common Questions

Are Plumbing Repairs tax deductible?

Plumbing repairs may be tax deductible if they relate to a rental property or business premises. Check with your accountant or tax professional for eligibility and documentation requirements.

Can you claim Plumbing Repairs on insurance?

Yes, but it depends on your insurance policy. Repairs due to sudden and accidental damage are often covered, but wear and tear or maintenance issues usually aren’t.

How much do Plumbing Repairs cost?

The cost varies depending on the issue, materials, and time required. Minor repairs may start at $150, while larger jobs can exceed $1,000. Contact Holmes Plumbing & Gas for an accurate quote.

Who is responsible for Plumbing Repairs in a rental?

Landlords are typically responsible for maintaining plumbing in rental properties. However, tenants may need to cover repairs if the damage was caused by their negligence.

Can I carry out Plumbing Repairs myself?

Simple tasks like unclogging a drain can be done yourself, but more complex repairs should be left to professionals to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
