First, this guy never answers his phone; you have to leave a voice message and he calls back. The problem with this, I learned, is if he does not want to talk to you he never calls back. He charged me $375.00 to re-connect two drains, a faucet and a gas line, which seemed pretty expensive to me but that is not my complaint. When the plumber that did the work was finished, I mentioned that I thought I smelled a gas leak and he told me there was a leak, but he repaired it. I said it still smelled like it was leaking and he said that it was not, that I probably either smelled the gas from the old leak or it was in my mind. Over the next two weeks, it seemed that there were faint odors of gas, but I was not sure; until I opened the cabinet under the cook-top and was inundated with the smell of gas. I called Nicor and they sent a tech out who immediately turned off my gas and told me that the fitting on the line was wrong and it would be illegal to turn the line back on until that was replaced. I called Northfield Plumbing and left a voice message explaining what was happening and I needed someone to come and do the repairs. I heard nothing from them so two days later I left another voice message, to no avail. I ended up leaving a total of three voice messages, with no response. Then I remembered that I had the cell phone number of the plumber who had done the work and I called him and he answered. I explained what the situation was and he came and made the repairs. A few days later I received a bill for $129.18. I called the company, got the voice mail and left a message that I did not think that I should have to pay again for work that they had performed that could have been dangerous to me and my family. I said in the message that if he wanted me to pay him I would need to talk to him first; if he agreed that this is not something for which I should be paying he did not need to call me back. I never heard from him, so I thought he had dropped it. On 3/29/16 (5 months later) I got another bill for the service and I called several times to no avail. I paid the bill as I do not want this piece of garbage to put a lien on my house, but I am trying to spread the word about this company for others to protect themselves from shoddy, dangerous work and a rip-off mentality.
