America's Plumbing

Wowthank you so much for going to bat for me over the abandonment of the contract I signed for a water heater (I bought separately) with America's Plumbing ID***.The entire issue was the plumber said he found an asbestos flue in the attic that then needed to be replaced by type "B" double walled metal after he started work and my stance was as I told him it behoved him to go up in the attic before giving me a bit and signing it for $and that he did not do, sohe wanted to charge me $more to complete the flue installation when he started at a.m and it was already p.m way over the hour time he said it would take it install the *** White water gallon water heaterI said I didn't have the funds to pay him cents more as I had scraped and saved just to get that $amountso I paid him off $and off he drove telling me I needed 7" of 'B' type flue and two degree joints of 'B' type double metal asking for the original contract and notating that as Noissues to be paidNo frigen way hosayYou bit it at $and so you need to keep to your bid and so it went AGAIN FOR A MONTH or less un operative and I still had cold water to bath in having paid $to America's Blumbing ownerd by *** *** *** and installed by *** *** who was the person that gave me the big in the first placeHe came with out the proper flues and degree joints or plumbers straping to secure the flue in the attic orscrews to join each pipe t-each otherI saw that ineptness as being 'set up' as a fool and paying $to him to get the permit down town and $more to finish the jobSon of a Bcold as a witchI just got screwed but good and he thought I would simply fork over $more to finish the installation or $1,to install my uncrated Lowe's water heater I bought months previously as cash would allow being and disabled and do not drive a car as wellthings are already hard enough to contend with with out being riped off by trades peopleSee California State License Board I had a drive take me to on Business Park Drive off of Bradshaw there in Ranch Cordova, Caand back again with the forms.As I see it the matter is still unfinished and libal if America's Plumbing sees fit to reemberse me for the labor I had to pay another plumber of which I have a receipt for of about $and parts I then paid for and installed by some one else which I do not of corse expect reemberment forMy main thing is to stop further con's like him from prepertrating on elderly and disabled

We understand the frustration *** has experienced but occasionally unexpected issues ariseWe clearly bid the job for up to hours, *** actually spent more than that as noted at the top of his paperwork and as shown on his GPS in his *** Transit van. First our initial bid with
acceptance of the install and initialed declination of us pulling the permitAt the time he said we charge too much for something he could doThat was his decision and we understand that decision but if it takes us over an hour to pull, pay and post a permit, we feel $is more than reasonable. Second our invoice with his agreement to install his water heater with item #declinedTwo prices were shown to ***, first is our regular price which is $and our discount price of $if we do it with item #The price of only applies if we have to come back another dayThe pricing was confirmed by me when *** called from the job siteIt was taken from our book price which I developed
