Owner
Eric Watson of Hot & Cold Plumbing and Heating was hired to install a new toilet for my home. He gave me a price over the phone and indicated that I should pick out my own plumbing fixture from his plumbing supplier. He was very specific in recommending we buy a Kohler toilet because he had problems with other brands. He showed up a few days later and installed the toilet and a new water line. After installing the toilet my wife asked him for a final price and an receipt for the work, although the price was higher than his quote we were glad to have the work completed. He produced a "Service Warranty" with a lot of legal wording unlike anything we have ever seen from a contractor. What stood out was the preprinted Warranty section that had the customary language about work quality guarantees etc.On the warranty page in scribled writing that my wife had difficulty in reading, he had written "no warranty on work or equipment". He was in a hurry to leave and my wife paid him only to decipher the scribled in qualifier when she carefully examined the document. We were a little uneasy about this apparent conflicting info. since on the way out my wife had asked him what if we had any problems with the toilet and installation. He assured her that he would remedy any faulty labor. The next day we found water all over the bathroom floor and the toilet kept on running, We immediately contacted him and he later left a message that he was going away for the weekend and would get back to us on Monday.. It is now one week later and the only contact from him was a message where he referenced the contract and how he was not responsible for problems with the leak and or installation. He further stated that he would come out but we had to pay a minimum of $145 for the visit. I called and texted him 4 times to discuss this matter and I have not received a return call despite having a leaky and runny toilet. I hired a new plumber because are leak was worsening. The new plumber indicated that the problem was improper tightening of the toilet and the flapper. He fixed both problems in a matter of 20 minutes. It is now 8 days later and we have still not heard back from Eric Watson. Buyer beware!
