I contracted with this Realistic Plumbing Inc to install a new sewer, water and gas line to a new adu, ensuring that he would do a professional job, make sure he left the place level and safe. I also inquired about safety measures while the work was to be performed and he assured me that he would cover the trench with boards and putting up fencing to ensure no one fell inside as it was directly in front of the entry way. None of which did he do. He merely put up an orange web fence in front of part of the entry and the Ac unit and then My contractor two of my boards over the part of the trench that was directly in front of the door leaving the other 50 feet merely covered with a black plastic with no safety precautions to prevent someone from falling in the trench.
It has been over 2 months ago and they still have not completed the job and left a muddy unsafe mess of a sink hole. I already paid them almost all of the contract price (discovered the remaining balance is less than the cost of the material to finish the job). They left an open trench without proper safety precautions and then covered
The trenches before it passed the gas and water city inspection for the lines. He never returned to finish the job of running the pipe for the gas line and connecting it to the meter or rerunning the water line that kinked during the install. Then when I sent him notice that I would hire another company to finish the job and file a CCB complaint to settle the difference, since I already overpaid him, he sent me a letter from what looks like a prepaid legal service trying to get me to agree to settle and call it even, stating that he can charge me additional sums of money. The line has yet to be finished and other than the letter I have not received a response from the company in weeks. Roger the owner is difficult to deal with and rarely returns phone calls or text messages. He is very unprofessional and misleadingly dishonest. Never follows through and no showed over 5 times.
