Corrigan's Plumbing

It was partially not their fault. It was difficult to find out exactly where the leak was, so I think they just guessed. It still leaks, so I am calling another plumber. We have Home Guard, so charge was $100, would have been $160. I just wasn't very impressed with them.

I WOUND UP PAYING A $45 FEE TO BE TOLD I NEEDED ''A REAL PLUMBER''. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PIPES IN MY HOUSE WERE ABOUT READY TO BLOW, THE JOINTS, ETC. NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, THE WATER HEATER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. (NONE OF WHICH WAS IN MY HOME INSPECTION REPORT). THEY REFUSED TO DO THE WORK. MY CLAIM WAS DENIED AS A ''PRE-EXISTING CONDITION'' BECAUSE OF THE PIPES IN THE BASEMENT. THEY REFERRED ME TO J.A. MEYERS PLUMBING WHO, PROMPTLY CAME OUT, INSTALLED A NEW FAUCET AND REPLACED THE FAULTY WORK UNDER THE SINK IN A VERY TIMELY MANNER.

OUR HOME WARRANTY COMPANY ASSIGNED CORRIGAN'S PLUMBING TO DO THE WORK. THE MAN & WOMAN (HAD TO BE HUSBAND AND WIFE, MY GUESS) THEY SENT OUT WERE A QUIET, BLUNT, BORDERLINE RUDE OLDER COUPLE THAT MADE MULTIPLE HOLES IN OUR WALLS (ONE OF WHICH WASN'T NEEDED) TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THEN THEY PROPOSED A BAD IDEA FOR HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MY WIFE, BROTHER, AND I ALL INDEPENDENTLY CAME UP WITH THE SAME, BETTER SOLUTION. WE SUGGESTED IT, THEY DID THE WORK, THEY LEFT. WE WERE LEFT SHAKING OUR HEADS. (OUR HOME WARRANTY DEDUCTIBLE WAS $50.) DURING OUR INITIAL PHONE CONVERSATION AS WELL AS THE TWO FOLLOW-UP CALLS, THEY KEPT STRESSING HOW IMPERATIVE IT WAS THAT THEY HAVE AN AVAILABLE PARKING SPACE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE SINCE THEY'D HAD THEIR TRUCK BROKEN INTO RECENTLY. OOOOOOOOOKAY, WE AGREED, THREE TIMES, ODD PEOPLE.

OUR HOME WARRANTY COMPANY CONTRACTED WITH CORRIGAN, SO WE HAD TO USE THEM A YEAR AGO FOR SOME PLUMBING PROBLEMS. THEY RESPONDED TO OUR CALL QUICKLY AND WERE COURTEOUS, BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIX A FEW PROBLEMS (E.G. SINK DIVERTER, LEAKY FAUCET). WE LET THE PROBLEMS GO FOR A YEAR, AND TODAY ANOTHER PLUMBER FIXED THEM WITH EASE. BECAUSE WE HAD THE HOME WARRANTY, WE ONLY HAD TO PAY $50 FOR THE SERVICE CALL.

GOT HERE REALLY QUICK AND GOT THE JOB DONE! THEY SEEM TO BE REALLY EXPERIENCED IN THIS INDUSTRY!

RUDE, SLOPPY. WE GOT THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONLY CONTRACTOR OUR HMS WARRANTY WILL USE. WE FOUND THEIR RUDENESS AND PRICE FOR A SIMPLE ESTIMATE (AND IT WAS SIMPLE) BREATHTAKINGLY AWFUL. NO WAY WOULD WE EVER, EVER RECOMMEND THEM. AWFUL.
