We would never recommend this company to anyone.
On 4/20/15, RR&R sent a finish carpenter and one helper to repair a water damaged corner in our pantry. Both were here less than 6 hours. In its $1,825.00 detailed bill dated 5/28/15, and received by us on 7/8/15, the Finish Carpenter's charge per hour, 8 hours @ 59.47 = 475.76.
Equipment setup, take down, and monitoring (hourly charge), 6 hours @ 40.59 = 243.54. We believe this is the finished carpenter's helper. This same person served as the Electrician, at 1.5 hours, @ 65.00 = 97.50. This is for "labor to detach wire mold trim above countertop." I was witness to this. He went down to the basement to shut off the breaker and came back upstairs and cut the wire with utility scissors. It didn't even take him 15 minutes. This same person served as the Mason - Brick/Stone - per hour, 4 hours @ 45.65 = 182.60. I was told that this person worked at a place that sold granite counters, etc., which justified mason charges, and they chipped my granite backsplash while removing it. In essence, this one person, who wasn't here even 6 hours, is being billed as a carpenter's helper (6 hours), an electrician (1.5 hours), and a mason (4 hours), in addition to other charges, such as for vacuuming.
Plumber - per hour, 1 EA @ 248.40 = 248.40. "Call in plumber to cut and cap dishwasher, kitchen sink and disposal - labor and materials." We live in the Seacoast where prices are high. This charge for one hour is outrageous. To add insult to injury, the work was so shoddy that we had to hire our own plumber to correct the situation.
We hardly ever heard from these people from 4/20/15 thru 7/8/15, they rarely return phone calls, but between 7/8/15 and 7/27/15, a mere fourteen business days, the company called four times (from caller ID and voicemail messages) to see when they could expect payment. On 7/27/15, this company left a voice mail message on our home phone threatening if we didn't pay, it was going to proceed in small claims court and/or attach our property.
It's hard to believe its fraudulent billing practices have not yet been investigated. read more
