TWO MONTHS after this company charged me $180 to come out and look at my issue, then double the quote when they got here - I called them (They never reached out to me at all) to see if that amount would go toward the total amount - even though they kept raising the price. I understand repairs cost money - but how much?? And don't jack up the price, then charge for coming out again.
I first talked to a lady who didn't understand why they charged me TWICE without fixing squat. She said someone would call me back.
The man who called me and talked to me like I was his ex-wife who may have had a side piece and got the house in the divorce, asked me if I would take this review off if the company fixed it.
I said I only put down what actually happened. I didn't embellish, exaggerate, lie, bad-mouth. I stated facts. They charged me twice.
He kept gaslighting me, saying no, that is not what happened. I just didn't understand this type of home repair. The company charges $90 for the estimate. I said I had already paid. He said, no, it's different. I just didn't understand. I felt like we were dating.
And he still didn't tell me how much it would be.
He would not commit to coming out until I agreed to take this review down. We hung up.
Another lady called back about 2 hours later and said that DAZ would be happy to come out and complete the work.
I still didn't get a quote. Wow! Can't even escalate well.
NO THANKS!
Charged 2 times and got 2 completely different estimates by 2 different people for the exact same job.
The issue: hot water runs from the kitchen faucet when the water heater is on. So I mostly leave it off.
I've had a lot of work done on my house. It's 100 years old and I've replaced or repaired just about everything in it. So, I know if you want the work, you have to pay a price.
The first person who came out quoted me $300. I just needed to buy my own faucet because they don't sell the one I need. This trip and estimate = $89.95
GOT THE FAUCET.
The second person, as soon as he gets here asks, "What did they quote you?" I told him. He said, "No. It's $389.00. But I might be able to do it for $300 if it's just the faucet."
Turns out, he says he'll have to get into the wall, it might be $400, $500, $600. He won't know til he gets in there.
Whoa! So...double what I was quoted? MAYBE?
I told him I couldn't afford that now, thanked him. Asked him what i owed him for coming out.
This trip and estimate: $89.00
He left without giving me a receipt or written estimate for what he just quoted me.
Everyone was perfectly nice. But it left me asking:
What was the first estimate for? read more
