You wrote a review for applewood plumbing heating & electric one hour ago 1.0 star rating 11/18/2017 ceo john ward, i wanted to inquire about the very high price i paid for the plumbing work at my home. I'm a retired contractor five year's to date. General contractor 40 year's. I have never over charged my customer's and always had repeat satisfied customer's. Alex todorov was very professional and did an excellent job. The main street valve going out to the street would not shut water completely off. He replaced the valve by cutting off the old 1" copper pipe installed new ball valve. 1/2 hour charged $ 557.46 copper pipe + ball valve let's just say material 57.46 don't you think 1,000.00 an hour is ridiculous ? I needed my tub faucet's replaced. I cut the ceramic tile eight pieces and drywall out so when he arrived he would be able to start working right away. As it was 6:00 p.M. He also said he would have cut a round circle in the tile for the round excusion trim plate. He also said that would cost $300.00 Really ). He charged us $1,532.00 Material cost delta faucet around $160.00 plus copper pipe material cost $232.00. He worked from 7:00 p.M. Till 10:00 p.M. 3 hr.'s. $500.00 an hour ! 3 1/2 hour's labor at $ 2,000.00 approximately $571.00 an hour. I wish i could have charged that much an hour when i was working.
Alex talked me into an additional $ 198.00 membership to save a whopping 15%. One year ago we called out your technician to fix our furnace did an excellent job and a reasonable price. That is why we thought we could trust your company again. I understand your technicians work on a commission base only? Do you really condone your technicians to charge these high triple price's ? I hope you can adjust our bill down to a reasonable cost. I would like a refund. I wanted to make you aware of what is being charged to your customer's so your technicians can make a higher profit ! i will wait for your reply and hopefully a reasonable refund. Other wise i will contact the colorado attorney general, bbb, 2.4.7.9. News, linked, yelp, vfw, senior center, i will send cc of this e-mail. I hope this can be avoided. Sincerely, mr. & mrs. Ray a,
I can't believe you have apple wood plumbing on your referral list. I talked to amy at apple wood their so called manager. Listened to her excuses why they charge a flat fee and so called High caliber services) the triple prices they charge. But she said we don't over charge customers. She first offered 10% off then 20% off and i told her she was still over charging me but she wouldn't refund any more. The national average plumbers price per hr. Is $278.00 they charge well over $570.00 an hour. Ray and still they are on your referral list. Check out yelp, pissed consumer, angis list, , bird eye, city grid, city search has alot of pissed off customers. How long will this company going to rip people off! especially Senior's like my wife and i ?) when i get done with the colorado attorney general we will find out after i give results to the new's media. 10:48am ray 10:48am ray 10:48am
On Jan.8th 2015, my kitchen ceiling light stopped working. I called applewood & they charged me $198.00 for a service club membership which was to save me money on any future calls. He fixed the outlet on the wall & said everything was fine.
On Jan. 20th 2015,my light fixture stopped working again. He installed a new flourescent fixture, which I supplied, for $200.00, replaced a switch for $195.94 ( which he never did) circuit diagnosis for $330.57, new wiring for junction box for $252.37, all wiring connections $109.65. with senior discount $56.00 & coupon $25.00, I paid $1,007.26.
On Feb. 2nd, 2015 I heard a popping noise. I called them back & they removed my oak boarder box & the junction box and said they found melted wiring. They said they would have to make holes in my ceiling & walls to run wiring & and that it would cost about $3,000.00. They put back everything & left. I told them I would get another estimate.
In the meantime, on Mar 3rd 2015, I found someone through a friend who was very honest & fixed the problem through the switch for $450.00. He said no holes were necessary & looked at my invoices and said I was charged for things they didn't do.
On Mar. 20th in the wee hours of the night, I heard a big crash. I got up to investigate and found the oak frame box had fallen and wires were holding it by a thread from the floor. Luckily it didn't happen in the day or evening or someone could have been hurt.
I called the other electrician & he said they used too short of screws to put up the box. He reinstalled the wiring & rebuilt my box & charged $800.00 & told Applewood that he would testify in court unless they refunded me all my money plus his charges. They agreed & sent me $2005.26
The reason I'm sending this complaint so late is because I've seen them advertized on T.V. & don't want anyone else taken in by these thieves especially on senior citizens of which Iam one. Thank you.
