CenterPoint Energy - Houston
angiem357 June 9, 2009
They came in a team to jump my fence with ladders (i keep my gate locked) and cut off my gas. When I showed them copies of my bank statement and recent bill to prove I was up to date, they literally ran away from me and refused to even call their supervisor for confirmation. I spent 45 minutes on the phone, trying to figure out how such a mistake could be made. I'm on time and current - in fact, I overpaid last time just because it was easier to make it a round number! They said they would get somebody out within 2 hours. When... read full review »

Ray's Heating and Air
Jo June 9, 2009
Ray's Heating and Air replaced my air conditioning condenser last year and did a very poor job. First, they replaced a 3 1/2 ton 10 seer unit with a 4 ton 13 seer unit but did not replace the coil. A couple of hours after they left from installing the system it turned on to cool off the house and we heard a loud thumping noise. When I called Ray he came out and said that he needed to replace the coil which would be another $1, 100.00 over the $1, 500.00 that I just paid him. He said he was going to have to cut into the beam in the attic... read full review »

I purchased an item that when it came it was defective. In order to get my money back, I was told the package wasn't to be opened, but how was I to know if it worked. If I send it back, I pay for the shipping again and to get another one I pay the shipping on the new one. Do not do business with this company. You'll waste your money! read full review »

I made an appointment with Mr. Michael Barabas because water was backing up into my shower and bathtub. He was extremely professional on the telephone, I therefore asked for their services. A man by the name of Chuck came 3 and half hours after the time promised. He claims to have unclogged the pipe but left my home with both the bath tub and the shower still being clogged. I had left to work and he charged the agreed $ 95. and told my son that it would be another $100. to fix the problem. When they called me at work I felt like this man wa... read full review »

George, a friend, simply asked questions on our behalf as he has experience in the field. Mr. Worley was paid directly by us, not George. Please look up the definition of "sub-contractor". 2.

Robert Landegger of Capitol Real Estate refuses to comply with City's regulations and split the cost of a delapidated block wall bordering his property. He has been dragging this out for years. He claims the wall can be repaired. He has his contractor draw up an inflated estimate for repair so he can get 1/2 of the cost. All the contractors we had look at the wall would not even begin to fix it. It's beyond fixing. The wall presents a danger to anyone around it. It wobbles and the blocks are lose.
