5 stars for the new owner and plumber who came to my condo and 2.75 stars for the receptionist's attitude and scheduling hiccup.
I spoke to owner and plumber, Vernon, a week ago to explain what I wanted done in my condo. He was great and we scheduled a time for him to come out. He arrived but the condo hadn't shut off the water in the building so he was unable to perform the service. He was extremely nice and said we could reschedule.
We rescheduled, and the receptionist called me the day before around 5 pm and left me a voicemail. Within an hour I returned the call, got the voicemail, and left her a message confirming that we were good to go, my address is XXX and the water would be shut off by the condo maintenance man. The next morning at 10 when the plumber was scheduled, no one arrived. At 10:15 I called and the receptionist to see if he was on his way and said she never heard back from me so I wasn't on the schedule. I explained I got her message, then called back and left her a message. (I also had the water shut off in my entire building, so 50+ people were affected by this) She proceeded to say she'd been doing this work for 13 years and this has never happened. Under her breath she cursed. I figured she was frustrated (I was too) and explained the urgency in rescheduling since a renter was moving in the condo in 2 days. She again didn't believe me about leaving her a voicemail. I asked for her e-mail address and sent her screen captures of my iPhone where it shows her missed call and my call back to her and the amount of time (53 seconds, long enough to leave my message). We rescheduled and (thankfully!) Vernon came back out and did a great job. He even called before he came to apologize for her behavior. Hopefully the hiccup was a one-of-a-kind but accusing a customer is never the best way to go.
