unprofessional
I hired Mr. Plumber of Howell, NJ - a licensed plumber and home improvement contractor. He did repairs in my home. When one of the items he repaired was not working, I called him and explained the situation. He put me off for at least 6 weeks - one excuse after another. I had to hire an electrician to make the repairs and, naturally, pay him for his services. When I told Mr. Plumber that I had to hire and pay another contractor, he told me he only make calls that he gets paid for, not non- paying jobs. I had to pay twice for the same repair. Bad enough, I had to find the funds to make the initial necessary repairs, but to hire and pay someone else to repair someone elses mistakes????? I also recommended h im to a friend who was having trouble with the tank of the toilet bowl. He charged her and told her he put all new parts. A week later, the problem happened again, she looked and saw that the parts were old and all he did was attach a wire to hold it together. Did not return to her home either. II know this is not the way to run a business - slipshod and totally unprofessional. When the corporate accounts decide they no longer need a contractor - it is the everyday household that will call you --- but not if your reputation preceeds you. I was better off calling a big name company to make my repairs - they stand behind their work and will never treat you like - sorry - no time for you.

Negligence
If you hire Mr. Plumber, Howell, NJ, be careful. I thought I hired a licensed master plumber to work on my bathroom. Mr. Plumber and his assistant broke my main water valve. My basement was flooded and they took no responsibility. They turned off my neighbor's water instead of mine causing more water to flood my basement. Mr. Plumber took no responsibility for his negligence. I was on my own. Mr. Plumber did not even have the decency to to call back to see how we were doing, until after complaints were made. Mr. Plumber told his insurance company that the flood was my fault because my valve was rotted. Bunch of BS. I am fighting with his insurance company to get my expenses reimbursed. Beware of Mr. Plumber, Howell, NJ
