This was the service provider for my home warranty coverage. The plumber stated the warranty did not cover removal and reset of toilet and the fee to do so was $100. LG refused to do the work if myself or family member pulled toilet. LG did not try another avenue (e.g. sewer stack access in basement) Kitchen faucet was clearly leaking but was told it was a pipe behind the wall. Unnecessary tests (water pressure, etc) were performed. Once I requested replacement of faucet instead I was told warranty may not cover new faucet. Once confirmed with warranty I was asked repeatedly to purchase “premium” faucet not covered by warranty. Another service provider came in and corrected the leak in the bathroom at no additional cost

I was required to use Live Green through HMS my home warranty company after my water heater failed. After waiting one week to have Live Green inspect the unit they reported back to HMS that the unit should be replaced. It has now been two weeks and Live Green has refused to return several messages that I have left and apparently is not returning calls from HMS. Very unprofessional.

I could have done job in less time and below the warranty deductible cost. Extremely poor quality of service and replacement parts. Generic unit provided with no documents or paperwork. I don't even know what is manufactorer warranty on unit, was told that I can do a claim thru my warranty company if it fails. Really, pay another deductible? What happens if I don't renew? Finally told him to leave. After installed, discovered a cracked drain connector, his response was i must have done it, as it was not cracked when he installed. He used the original connections. I ended up going to Home Depot, getting parts and repairing myself.

Sent by HMS for home warranty assessment. Plumber cancelled twice ($100 deductible) then showed up to take initial inspection then refused to take down tile pieces to gain access to the leaking tub pipe. After we opened the tiles, he claimed in-proper installation for refuse of warranty coverage, but told me on the side that he can fix it at $$$$$.

I would use them again for small jobs. I'm not sure that for a larger job, they're diagnosing the problem correctly.

The guy came and it seemed like he was trying to get through the work as quickly as possible. The pricing was fairly okay to me. They should provide better service.

Dispatched for our home warranty for several plumbing related issues.  He evaluated each issue in favor of the home warranty company and stated that nothing was "broken".  Therefore, nothing was fixed.  We disagree with the plumber's assessment but we do not have the time to fight it.  We will hire another company to fix the issues.  I will not do business with this company in the future.

The scheduler and technicians were extremely professional and courteous. The work was done through a home warranty so I only had to pay my deductible ($100). Not sure what the full cost of the repair would have been.

HE enters the house and asks to see all the items AHS prescreened to have repaired. He immediately started taking pictures. At the end, he asked to collect the $75.00 deductible, and then went out to sit in his truck.

Atone point I came out and heard him talking with AHS, seemingly making a case for one item as to being ineligible (later to find out I could have that item repaired if I paid him $360.

One item he declared ineligible was a turnoff valve. He said not normal wear and tear, yet when the inspector inspected it, he want to test close it and it snapped off with minimal pressure (and this is so stated in the report) . How is it want a required turn off valve is inspected, and breaks in the hands of a qualified inspector (at least 20 year veteran) its considered non normal wear and tear.

In another instance, w here a toilet was loose from the base, rather ten secure it, he said the tile floor he claimed  was not level (I do not think he used a level, he was using his flashlight). I later took a level up there, and found both directions to be level within the bubble indicators.  

Still the solution was to tighten the screws, and worst case use a piece of woof shim to adjust for any possible out of levelness.

In the sase of the kitchen sink, it was noted in the report the drain was leaking. I made the mistake earlier  in the day  to remove the drain and took it to Lowes for their plumbing dept to match up a replacement. I was originally going to do this myself till I realized this too should be covered.  My mistake was attempting to help, and it voided he spending the 10 mins to install the new part. But no worried, I put it in myself during one fo his reveal breaks in his truck.

I was most frustrated by the nest rounds of calls he made getting the powder room toilet leak denied. HE claimed the toiler flange was cracked at the bold tie down. He claimed it was not standard wear and tear, yet could provide no explanation on how it was not, and said flanges typically last a lifetime. But despite the fact that an installed  spacer rendered the bold hole unnecessary, and there si now not bold used in this location, he still said the damage must be non-standard wear and tear, yet said the fix could be as simple as replacing he spacer with one he has in his trick, and adding a couple extra screws. This si apparently want he wanted to do, but rather then get a few bucks doing it as an authorized repair, he got to denied hoping to charge me $387 to repair. (perhaps unsuspecting that this mechanical engineer would challenge his diagnosis).

 

The house is 25 years old, thins wear and break, this may have been broken a long time for all I know. But the fact of the matter is, AHS would not have paid him nearly that much from what he described to me as a few min repair, so that?s the ony way them make these warrantee service calls work. They are like the auto shop that does the $15.99 oil change with 25 point inspection. They loos money on the old change, but make it up for items they can charge full price for while they are there.
