Jesse Jones, of Jones Plumbing, represents himself as a 'master' plumber. He states he has a plumber's license within the state of Colorado and offers to give a license number but did not follow through with that. Dept. of Regulatory Agency does not have anyone by his name, nor company name, nor address, nor phone number.
Jesse was found at a reputable referral site, so I thought that the information was reliable. He was a referral for a sump pit motor installation which he wanted to connect the discharge PVC pipe into the sewer drain; if I had not said 'no' he would've caused sewage to back flow into my basement. The motor is not operable as it sprays water all over when activated to which Jesse stated 'it is to Code' however, it has been found that he is not even a licensed plumber and most likely does not carry insurance. Jesse has demonstrated dishonesty and is will cut corners and lacks integrity.
Jesse was looking for extra jobs he could to earn more money as he was closing on a home 9/2017. He tried to get me to fire my fence contractor and take over that project. Then he solicited me with an offer I could not refuse to connect a new dishwasher for $50 if I purchased one (mine was fine but it was aging and $50 seemed too good to pass up). Jesse did not hook up dishwasher correctly, using the old hoses which were too long, 16', and too old which puts one at risk for cracks and leaks (insurance won't cover an installation like this); the hose should be a custom 10' in length without attachments as this leads to possible leakage. Jesse backended me with extra charges for the dw hook up totaling $255, we did not talk about this, and I could not even use his worthless work. I ended up having to pay a 'real' installer $243 to get it right.
Jesse then did an upsell on me for his financial benefit at my expense. Jesse stated I had a drainage issue and quoted me a price and stated 'I am saving you so much money' for a french drain system and sump pump in my crawl space. Unbeknownst to me, a permit should've been pulled but wasn't. First of all, I didn't even need a system like this! Jesse did not place the drains nor the sump pit in the proper places, neither did he surround the sump pit nor the drainage hoses with pea gravel, nor did he have the system wired, so it is not even functional. He used the wrong size PVC pipe. Where the PVC pipe exits my home, Jesse incorrectly placed a french drain which is creating hydrostatic pressure and is causing the wall to bulge and crack. This was just more money Jesse bled out of me in order for him to close on his house. Jesse is sloppy, not knowledgeable, and ripped me off and created problems for me.
Jesse promised to repay my $2,830 and remove his faulthy, worthless system but has now reneged on his promises. Jesse is not worthy of trust.
Run away as fast as you can! He is not the real deal! He even ran a PVC pipe through a baby gate sitting next to the sump pit under my stairs! Can you imagine that? Who does that? Jesse also left a big mess in my front yard with all the dirt impeding water flow and a broken sprinkler system that I just found out about when the sprinklers were just blown out. 10/13/17
