Since I have been contacted by the 'manager and boy scout leader', who clearly has not discovered the latest invention, spell check, I felt that I should provide a little more information regarding my experience with Bulldog Plumbing.
I have flipped dozens of homes over the past years in addition to living in at least 7 others myself (I get bored! Sometimes moving is easier than remodeling!)... the point is, it's not my first day.
My trusted Realtor called these people out to do a simple test which 3 other plumbing companies quoted $90 - $120 to complete. Since Bulldogs was recommended by another Realtor, we selected them. They did not give us a price until after the work was complete. I just assumed they would be right in there with the other plumbers, why wouldn't they? All I needed was a meter put on a gas line for the Gilbert inspector to see... the house had been vacant for a couple years. It took 10 minutes and hardly any effort.
We received a ridiculous bill for $500. It wasn't a weekend, it wasn't an emergency, there was no reason other than greed and taking advantage of a situation where they assumed they would not be questioned by a couple of 'girls'.
I called to speak to them about the bill and was treated extremely badly, like I was stupid and didn't know what I was talking about. Like, how dare I question them!? Again, my point was that the price was NEVER quoted to us up front or we wouldn't have told them to proceed.
Whatever. I paid the ransom because I just wanted to move on with my life but I will make it a point to share my experience with everyone I possibly can.
There are many great plumbing contractors out there, don't take a chance with one who clearly doesn't care about customer service or doing the right thing. read more
