Crestwood Plumbing

We have used Crestwood Plumbing for years. We've always been pleased with the company as a whole, for the most part. They employ one plumber that has consistently been assigned to our several properties this past year. We believe he is not at the level to run a job as their other plumber. Several jobs ago we trusted his recommendation and now we believe that was wrong. He then installed a water heater incorrectly (after the first one was also installed wrong and got ruined / we paid full price for both heaters). This past incident, his time spent here was trying to convince us to do MASSIVE destruction to our basement to look for the very thing right in front of him but he denied that was what we were telling him. He argued with us for several hours and we asked him to leave. We called another company out and bam, done. If Crestwood Plumbing did what they recommended we would have spent thousands and thousands of dollars not only on the job but the destruction of our basement! Then we got a bill for $550. After speaking with the office and them speaking with the owner, Jerry, it was cut in half. I requested reason for even a bill at all?!? They did NOTHING but argue about what they wanted to do. They were going to get back to us. They didn't. They sent us a new bill for half, $275.00. I called and spoke with Jerry. First of all, I do not appreciate being cussed at when I pointed out that his employee did nothing. He verbally agreed that I didn't have to pay anything with the condition we never call on them again (which was already a decision we made based on the last several calls). When I requested an updated invoice stating a closed ticket with a zero balance he (Jerry, the owner of Crestwood Plumbing) cussed at me again. He refused. Not only are we disappointed that a local, small company behaves in this manner we feel it to be neighborly that we warn our neighbors of the kind of business practice Crestwood Plumbing currently has. Be warned.
