Welcome to TK Plumbing. By using our website, requesting an estimate, or hiring us for any plumbing work, you agree to these Terms of Service. We've written them in clear language so you know exactly what to expect β both from us and from you.
01 Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the TK Plumbing website at tkplumbing941.com and any plumbing services we provide. By accessing our site, contacting us through calling 9413923846, or accepting our services, you confirm that you've read, understood, and agree to these Terms.
If you don't agree with any part of these Terms, please don't use our website or services. These Terms apply to all visitors, customers, and anyone authorizing work on a property they own or manage.
02 Services Provided
TK Plumbing provides licensed and insured residential and commercial plumbing services throughout Sarasota, Manatee, Charlotte, Lee, and Pinellas counties in Florida. Our services include but are not limited to:
- Emergency plumbing repairs and 24/7 response
- Leak detection and repair (including slab leaks)
- Drain cleaning, hydro jetting, and sewer line repair
- Water heater repair, replacement, and tankless installation
- Toilet, faucet, and fixture installation and replacement
- Garbage disposal installation and repair
- Backflow testing and prevention
- Whole-home repiping and water filtration systems
- Commercial plumbing services and maintenance contracts
Specific work performed is documented in your written estimate and final invoice. Anything outside the agreed scope requires your approval before we proceed.
03 Estimates & Pricing
Free Estimates
We provide free, no-obligation estimates for most plumbing work. Estimates are valid for 30 days from the date issued unless otherwise stated. Prices may change after that period due to material costs or part availability.
Upfront Pricing Promise
We commit to flat-rate, upfront pricing whenever possible. The price you approve before we start is the price you pay β no hidden fees, no inflated hourly charges. If unexpected issues are discovered during a job, we'll stop, explain the situation, and provide a written change order for your approval before continuing.
Diagnostic Fees: A diagnostic or service-call fee may apply for complex troubleshooting (e.g., leak detection, sewer camera inspection). This fee is disclosed before we begin and is often credited toward the repair if you proceed with our recommendation.
04 Payment Terms
Payment is due upon completion of services unless other terms are agreed to in writing. We accept:
- Major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover)
- Cash and personal/business checks
- Approved financing (subject to third-party lender approval)
- ACH transfers for commercial accounts
Returned checks are subject to a $35 processing fee plus any bank charges. Past-due invoices over 30 days accrue a service charge of 1.5% per month (18% APR), or the maximum rate permitted by Florida law, whichever is less.
For larger projects (over $2,500), we may require a deposit before scheduling work. The deposit amount and terms will be specified in your estimate.
05 Scheduling & Cancellations
Appointments
We schedule arrival windows rather than exact times so we can give every customer the attention they deserve. We'll text or call when our technician is on the way.
Cancellations & Rescheduling
We understand life happens. Please give us at least 4 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule a non-emergency appointment. Same-day cancellations after a technician has been dispatched may incur a trip fee equal to our standard service-call charge.
No-Shows & Locked Premises
If our technician arrives at the agreed time and is unable to access the property (no one home, locked gate, etc.), a trip fee will apply to recover dispatch costs.
06 Workmanship & Warranty
We stand behind our work. Every repair and installation includes:
- Workmanship Warranty: 1 year on labor for standard repairs (longer on major installations β see your invoice).
- Manufacturer Warranty: Parts and equipment carry the manufacturer's warranty, which we'll register and explain to you.
- Extended Coverage: Select major installations (water heaters, repiping, tankless systems) include extended warranties as documented on your invoice.
Warranty Exclusions: Our warranty does not cover damage from misuse, neglect, freezing, acts of nature, work performed by other contractors, customer-supplied parts, or pre-existing conditions outside the scope of repair. Warranty service requires reasonable access to the work area.
To make a warranty claim, contact us at 9413923846 or info@tkplumbing941.com with your invoice number. We'll typically respond within one business day.
07 Customer Responsibilities
To help us deliver the best possible service, you agree to:
- Provide accurate information about the property, the issue, and any prior repairs
- Confirm you own the property or have legal authority to authorize work
- Provide reasonable access to the work area, including utilities, water shutoffs, and electrical panels
- Disclose known hazards (e.g., asbestos, lead paint, mold, hazardous materials)
- Secure or remove valuables, pets, and fragile items from the work area before our arrival
- Inspect completed work with the technician before they leave whenever possible
08 Limitation of Liability
TK Plumbing is fully licensed and insured. To the fullest extent permitted by Florida law:
- Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount paid for the specific service in question.
- We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, or loss of use.
- We are not responsible for pre-existing conditions, latent defects, or damage caused by failures unrelated to the work we performed.
- We are not liable for delays caused by parts availability, weather, permit processing, utility companies, or other causes beyond our reasonable control.
Nothing in these Terms limits any liability that cannot be excluded under Florida law, including liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct.
09 Emergency Services
We offer 24/7 emergency plumbing response across our service area. Emergency service requests received after standard business hours, on weekends, or on holidays may be subject to an after-hours rate, which will be disclosed when you call 9413923846.
If you have an active flooding situation, please:
- Shut off your main water valve immediately if safe to do so
- Turn off electricity to affected areas if water is near outlets or appliances
- Move valuables and electronics out of the affected area
- Call us at 9413923846 β we'll dispatch the next available technician
While we work hard to meet our 30-minute response target, actual arrival times depend on traffic, weather, and current job volume.
10 Property Access & Damage
Plumbing work sometimes requires opening walls, ceilings, floors, or landscaping to access pipes. We take every precaution to minimize impact and will discuss the work scope with you before we begin.
Unless explicitly included in your estimate, our work does not include:
- Drywall patching, painting, or finish carpentry
- Tile, flooring, or cabinet repair beyond the immediate work area
- Landscape restoration after underground line repairs
- Removal or reinstallation of customer-installed features (countertops, custom cabinetry, etc.)
We are not responsible for damage to undisclosed pipes, wiring, or hidden conditions behind walls or beneath floors. If we discover such conditions, we'll stop work and consult you before continuing.
11 Permits & Code Compliance
All work is performed in accordance with the Florida Building Code and applicable local plumbing codes. When permits are required (e.g., water heater replacement, repiping, sewer line work), we'll handle the permitting process and inspection scheduling.
Permit fees are typically passed through at cost and listed separately on your invoice. Customer-requested work that does not meet code will not be performed.
12 Website Use
The TK Plumbing website, including all content, logos, photos, text, and design elements, is the property of TK Plumbing and protected by copyright and trademark laws. You may use the site for personal, non-commercial purposes such as reviewing services and contacting us.
You agree not to:
- Copy, reproduce, or republish any content without written permission
- Use the site for unlawful purposes or to send spam
- Attempt to bypass security measures, scrape data, or interfere with site operation
