They were unable to locate the leak, so they installed a radio transmitter that would automatically shut off the water after each use. This didn't work, however, because our water bills are still very high. We intend to contact the company about this issue, however, to get it rectified.

"I recently purchased a Fannie Mae foreclosure, a house with nice potential but quite a mess to get started with. I contacted a couple of names from Angie's List and Roger Allen was so professional from the get go (good guy too), I went with him pretty quickly. He was able to get an estimate together and to my lender soon after I had asked. I'm not an expert on pricing but his numbers were consistent with the other I had received and ended up being accurate by the time everything was done. On small jobs that is easy, on the mess that was my house, quite a challenge. We had problems all around from an iffy septic system, siding peeling away, no hot water heaters, ancient electrical boxes, decor from a generation long past, leaks in the shower/master bath, carpeting that had seen much better days, etc. He was able to take care of everything inside of my budget without any glaring omissions. Even when my wife picked out expensive paints, he was able to take care of the overage. Roger and his people have been great, I'll be using him for any future fix-it jobs in the future for sure."
