    Status:
    Answered
    Mr Router visited my tenant, in my apartment, who is a very young consumer (~22 year old) due to a blocked toitlette. They needed to take up and then put back the toilette and quoted $828.97 + HST for this job that was accomplished in less than one hour by the technician. My tenant was unknowldegable buyer and the company took advantage of him. This is unfair business practice and price for this work and my tenant not knowingly accepted this as he felt pressured to resolve the situation that he never experienced before. The technician seemed honest, while the price was dishonest. I have called the customer service and requested that they deal with this situation and call me back with a resolution and a refund that will bring this pricing to down to level that is fair. Other would have charged $175 for service call and then another $100 for additional half an hour work, plus $25 in supplies making this a ~ $300+HST job. This company seems to be praying on the unknowledgeable buyer. * **** ** **** ****** * ********* ** *** ********* ********** ****** *** ********

    Last Spring, I hired this company for a major job and after only 2 days of completion, problems occurred. They were called back immediately put blame on another issue. As a result, thousands have been spent finding the source. It has recently been discovered that it is actually due to their faulty work. I have reached out to this company but they still refuse to admit any wrongdoing.

    Our service manager has reviewed the report provided by ********************* foundation contractors as well as spoken to the same contractor.

    The report indicated that the water coming over the slab in her home, is due to hydrostatic pressure because of excessive amount of water sitting above grade and in the soil itself below frost level making its way down the side of the foundation and even through the weeping tile is in functional order, it cannot handle this excess. 

    Based on the contractors verbal feedback and report, our service manager requested a meeting with ***************** and her contractor to review the situation. 

    ***************** has indicated that she is not interested in that meeting.  

    We would be very happy to meet with ***************** and her contractor at any time.
