Per hour, for labour; plumbers often charge a call-out fee as well.

On Mozome, providers set their own prices, and you see the price of a service before you book.

What affects the price

What you pay depends mostly on:

  • the type of job and how long it takes
  • parts and fittings, and whether they are included in the price
  • access: pipes under floors, inside walls or underground take longer to reach
  • any call-out or minimum charge the provider has
  • urgent bookings, if the provider prices them differently

What's included

Each provider describes what their service covers, and two services with the same name can cover different work. Ask the provider: whether parts are included, whether there is a call-out or minimum charge, and what happens if the plumber finds more work once they start.
