    Too expensive for the project. Bookcase cost me $30. Quoted $160 for the assembly. Too much $$.

For that, I had them put in a mixing valve and plumb in a shower wand for a tub. That job looked good except that the plumber had the fixtures way too far out (I asked for an inch to account for cement board and tile thickness. Was probably out almost 2 inches). I had to cut into the back of the wall to adjust the depth. But that plumber did okay as far as the piping was concerned (except I'm not a big fan of pro press couplings). The second time I needed my bathroom sink fixtures moved over about a foot and a mixing valve and shower wand put into a shower (everything was opened up). If I could give zero stars for this work, I would. The shower plumbing was a mess. Cut a hole in a 2x4 so big that the support was no longer any good (fortunately not a load bearing wall). Then the two pipes that went through he crossed over one another. (Would have been better to drill two smaller holes and fit pipe accordingly). Despite me indicating where I wanted the shower wand fixture, he put it up higher than the actual shower head!! I ended up having to move the shower wand myself (I used a shark-bite coupling for the first time rather than soldering it.) The bathroom sink work was even worse. Instead of extending the pipe the foot and using a single, 90degree coupling, he used five press-fit couplings and created a staircase like exit. Huh? Even worse, he put the valve connections about 1/2" from the studs. I asked him how was this going to work when I put sheetrock up...the outlets were in the same plane as the sheetrock! So he had to extend them out a bit (and I paid for that extra time to correct his mistake). I can do plumbing but wanted to be legal in Massachusetts by hiring a licensed plumber. I can also do better (I can solder but these guys all use pro-press fittings). I sincerely think that whoever they sent out was not a plumber. He must just be a warm body working under a licensed plumber's credentials. But the licensee did not inspect the work. The only good thing is that they charge by the hour (not cheap but still...). I estimated the work at about 3-4 hours and that's how long they took. Other plumbers I called just quoted the "work" and were about twice the money (around $2500). For 3-4 hours of work?? Makes me think about doing my own plumbing in the future.

Technicians were very polite and provided good recommendations. Cons: After taking a look at what needed to be done to install the backflow preventer, the technicians informed me that the job would be approximately $1,500, which was the price that my landscaper told to me to expect. Later in the day, I get a call from Domination, informing me that the estimate came in at $2,300. Since Domination's pricing was not competitive with other contractors, I decided not to proceed with their services. At this time, I was informed that there was a $129 estimate fee, which was the first time I was informed of this, at least to my recollection. I felt like I never consented to this so I asked if this could be waived. Later, I receive a call from the owner, where he explained his rationale as to why the estimate was $2,300, citing labor costs, materials, permits, and complaining about travel cost for his technicians. This was a strange and unprofessional conversation, using language such as "We want to do a good job, we are not here to f#ck around". Technicians were also extremely late for my 8:00am-9:00am appointment, arriving at approximately 10:30am. They also held me up for about an hour or so while they waiting for their admins to finalize a quote. For me, If your travel costs are so high, don't service Chestnut Hill residents and up charge them. Use professional language and effectively communicate to your customers. I have children that needed to get to daycare and this experience disrupted our day and work schedule
