Plumbing pricing varies a lot by job, which makes many businesses avoid publishing prices at all — but that avoidance has a real cost too.
Even a callout fee or a typical price range for common jobs (a tap replacement, a boiler service) addresses the "will this be expensive" anxiety that stops many visitors from calling at all — plumbing has a reputation, fair or not, for unpredictable pricing, and a visible range directly counters that expectation.
Jobs that genuinely vary a lot in scope are hard to price accurately without inspection — publishing a misleading number can create more friction than it solves, particularly if a job turns out to be more complex than the published range suggested.
Publish a callout fee and rough ranges for the most common, most standardised jobs, while being upfront that larger or unusual jobs need an on-site quote — this answers the most common pre-call question honestly without overcommitting on jobs that are genuinely unpredictable.
