On 11/14/2023 Wiese Plumbing replaced a leaking water heater that they originally installed in January of 2021. It was under warranty. However, the original water heater they installed had a cracked drip pan. So when the water heater leaked, it went all over my floor.
On 11/14/2023 ***** came out to do the warranty replacement. I asked ***** if he could make sure he replaced the drip pan as it has a crack and is not serving its purpose. ***** told me he did not have one in his truck and would have to go buy one at Home Depot/Lowes. He called me and told me they did not have any at the hardware stores and that he must go to his warehouse to get one and it would take him approximately an hour. When he got back and supposedly installed the new pan, I asked to see the old one and he said it was buried under boxes in his truck. Unfortunately, I did not press him to show me, I just simply wanted to see how a pan like that could crack.
While ***** removed the old water heater, he dripped sediment and rust all the way out of the house as seen in pictures provided. I told him it would cost me approximately $200 to hire carpet cleaners and he agreed to remove it from the installation’s costs, as seen as a line item on the provided receipt.
After he left I realized he never installed a new pan and he also charged me for a new pan, as seen as a line item on the receipt for $65.
Wiese then charged me the full $675 amount which did not include the $200 refund for the cleaning and the $65 refund for the non-installed drip pan
They told me they would come back out and install the drip pan. The first appointment was 12/6 and the second appointment was 12/14, both of which they no called/no showed.
On 12/19 I had to call and got to speak with ***** who told me he would ONLY refund me $220 via check in the mail. I asked why it would not be the full amount he had no explanation. He told me take the $220 or he is not going to give me anything.Business Response

Our tech did clean up after himself. We did offer to install the expansion tank and he refused. We did issue him money back.Initial Complaint

Wiese Plumbing came to my home on Oct 11, 2023 to fix a clogged tub drain. The technician ******* stated that the clog was stopped at 12ft and that I needed new pipes which would entail tearing up my bathroom floor or my kitchen ceiling. I opted out for a second opinion and ******* ******** came out and fixed the problem stating the pee-trap was clogged and now my tub is working fine. Also when Wiese Plumbing came out they knocked my spicket off of my tub without telling me the problem. I have had estimates of $600 to fix this problem caused by Wiese Plumbing. I have called them and reported the problem, but they never would return my call. I would never do business Wiese Plumbing every again and would recommend no one to call for their services. I'm glad I got a second opinion from ******* ******** and they did an excellent and trustworth job, because my whole house would be in demolition mode right now if I would have listed to Wiese Plumbing's terrible advice.Business Response

Sorry to hear regarding your complaint. We do like to get all the facts from both the tech and the homeowner before responding so we can accurately discuss the matter. Reviewing the pictures from when our tech was there, our picture indicates the tub spout is fine, and is completely different from the pictures we were sent after we left the job. We did remove the access panel behind the tub, however the tub faucet is not accessible at that point, nor was there any issue with the tub spout for us to work on. Clearly the pictures are different, however it was clearly after we left that this happened, but this is the reason why we take pictures. Regarding the second opinion, like any occupation you are free to do this, and it all goes thru an insurance company pending if they would approve it. This was our seasoned tech diagnosis who has many years of experience. There is also evidence of the ceiling below with cracks below this area as our pictures show, which supports his diagnosis. Ironically being quoted excessively $600.00 for a tub spout repair from a different company I would of assume would be more of an issue then one you are not even paying for.Customer Answer

I am rejecting this response because:
If the technician was so seasoned as Wiese Plumbing said, he would have been able to identify the p-trap needed taken off and unclogged. That so called season technician would have had my house in a demolition mode if I had not got a second opinion. The ceiling in my kitchen had nothing to do with what he said needed done so that's neither here nor there. I never received a phone call back from Wiese Plumbing, but I did receive a phone call from ****** from **** ***** and we discussed this matter and he has settled the issue. I'll be praying that the technicians at Wiese Plumbing gets retrained and recertified before they start giving estimates on what needs. God bless.Initial Complaint

We contacted Wiese Plumbing about fixing a drain stopper in our tub. They came out on 5/13/2023 and after they left the tub leaked and damaged our ceiling below in our kitchen. They came back out a month later after calling multiple times about their mistake. They fixed the leak, admitting they cut through a pipe causing the damage but said they would come back to fix the ceiling. We have been calling them for 2 months and they are refusing to fix the damage they caused. When we call them they hang up on us or yell at us and say they will call us back but never do. We are at our wits end and don’t know what else to do.Business Response

We have been in contact with the hbw-210 regarding this issue. We did need to get the company board together regarding issues like this and due to summer time we have had vacations that hindered getting together. However, we are intending on returning and correcting the problem. You should be hearing from us soon to get things fixed.Customer Answer

I am rejecting this response because: There would have been no issue if you would have just let us know that you needed more time to fix the damage. We are upset because we have called numerous times over 3 months and no one ever calls us back. We have left messages with no return phone calls and when we do get through to someone we have been told ever single time that you can not help us, that it has to be transferred to the service coordinator and that you will call us back and no one has ever called us back. I asked to speak directly with the service coordinator and was told no. You need to seriously improve on your communication. I truly hope you mean when you say we will hear from you shorty.
