Red flag
Owner threatened customers with credit agencies and attorney after disputed work: reviewer (2013) documents threats after bad installation left by unqualified helper
“They were late for their appointment then took weeks to finish the job. The employee that came out sat in the truck drinking while his unqualified helper did all the work which was done poorly at least and wrong at best. When I complained to the Steve the husband and Scarlett the wife... they threatened me and my wife with credit agencies.”
Red flag
City inspection failure after work: copper welds failed Hamilton OH inspection; company refused to rectify and hung up on customer requesting correction
“They showed up right away, took my payment for a complete inspection of my plumbing system but didn't know plumbing code for Hamilton Ohio. The welds are sloppy, dripping and black residue. The city inspection failed and when I called to ask for them to do it right I got the rudest person I've ever encountered.”

The evidence — in reviewers' own words
Critical
“I had a furnace installed 1yr ago now water is getting in the filter and I noticed they payed the drain hose on side of the unit not near the drain so I called lady answered the phone was rude all i wanted is them to send technician to install the hose probably like it should have been done 1st time she just kept on saying why wait this long it is rental property so my renters did say stay away from company won't …”
“Disappointed is an understatement. This is the worst company/ customer service I have ever dealt with. We waited and waited for them to come after they assured us they were on they way, and not only did they never show up but they never called or returned our calls. Would never recommend them.”
“We have no connection with the company. Just picked them out of the phone book. The plumber was supposed to fix leaking pipes under the kitchen sink. Unstop the kitchen sink. Give us a new sprayer. He screwed on a new sprayer top. Fixed the leak under the sink and unclogged the kitchen sink. We payed the $500.00. One day later my wife discovers there's all kinds of water under the sink. Water wasn't going …”
