Should I clean before the plumber comes?

<div>Before your plumber pays you a visit, it’s a good idea to clean up any boxes, garbage, or other obstacles that could be in their way.

"Installers were excellent. Salesman was knowledgeable. Problem was they did not communicate. The first day the installers tore out my vanity as well saying they had instructions to replace it. On the second day, the salesman called me and said whoops, you can either fix that yourself or we can install a new one for 7,000 more than we agreed I was at work so said I could not make a decision then. The installers told my wife that day that they were told I said I would fix it myself. I never said that. The company called to check if I was satisfied afterwards and I told them this. They said they would open a ticket but no one ever followed up with me."

"After leaving a previous review, they sent a GC out to help us understand what we were looking at AND fix a couple of concerns. I did not expect them to care, much less call us to say they were sending someone out. The GC not only fixed the issues, but provided us with some knowledge and consulted with us about our ENTIRE house. After this visit we are COMPLETELY SATISFIED!
