I had plumbing installed in my house by Bruce Holmes and he told me he was charging "time and materials". The first job he did, replacing all the plumbing from the meter and throughout my tine house, he charged 800 dollars even. I paid in cash and expected a receipt, which I never got. The price seemed about in line with what he quoted as his hourly fee plus the materials required but then he came back to fix the drain pipes. He did that job with half the crew and less time than the first job. He told me afterward that it was one thousand dollars. Again no receipt. He ripped me off. He has a drug problem, from what I've heard from a couple of people that know him, I found out later. I cannot recommend this company for anything. read more
