Joe the Plumber? Not on our watch

This election's Joe Six-Pack, a plumbing company owner named Joe Wurzelbacher, is quickly finding out that public scrutiny is humbling. Among other things, a quick background check indicated that Joe isn't licensed as a plumber in his county.

HomeStars users don't need the Associated Press to hound a person mercilessly, however.

All we know is that other homeowners are willing to talk about their experiences with good and bac plumbers - like this one. Maybe Richard the Plumber doesn't sound as humble (more like plumbing royalty), but for the Woburn, MA residents who use him, it's quality that counts. No spin doctors required. And of course, if you're licensed and have a variety of certifications (unlike Joe), you can come on HomeStars and claim your company to tell consumers about it. Claiming your company is free. (We sell upgraded listings also, for companies seeking additional profile depth and visibility.)
