They tried to rip us off today. The guy Came and saw the opportunity to make big bucks without even chec king to see what was the problem. He said that we needed to replace the ejector pump for $1,800 dollars. He thought we were stupid. We said no and he left and came back and said they it would cost $1,200. We rejected the deal. The whole thing cost $650. Thieves and very unprofessional.

Absolutely horrible customer service! We called this company on a Saturday at 1pm for a plumbing emergency where water was coming out from under our toilet and backing up in our shower drain. The dispatcher said a plumber would be at our place within an hour, but a few minutes later I got a call from the technician saying it would be between 60-90 minutes. I understood that it is a weekend and would be busy, so that was fine. However, an hour and a half passed and no one had arrived. I called the company to see if they were close, and they said they hadn't left the previous job yet. I wondered why they hadn't called to let us know it would be later than expected. bad customer service!

Unbelievable: I am an owner of Fox & Fox Property Management Inc. and I managed over 85 buidings, from Residential, Commercial and Condo Associations. I called this company on 10/24/17 to come to one of our residents because of a broken faucet in the bathroom, and a broken sprit outside of the residents house. This plumber name Bob, told me the plumbing was old and that he had to go to Home Depot, or a general hardware to find the part. He did locate the part which was $65.00. However, when he completed the job just for a replacing a broken 1/ 2 inch silcock that was stripped and install a new silcock and replaced shower handle and stem on 1st floor for tub shower faucet, the bill was a ridiculous price of $880.00. I was outraged, however, before giving me the bill he had quoted me a different price. When I asked him what did he do build a new shower in a few hours, he stated that amount also including his traveling time. This was a rip off. But, I paid his ridiculous price because of my integrity as a well known company. I will never ever, use this company for any of my buildings again. I spoke with several plumbers that stated this was a rip off, which I knew it anyway from dealing with several respected other companies. I am very disaapointed with this company, what this company fell to realize is that words spread fast in this business and can make you or break you.(Shaking my head).
