Zero Stars- Do Not Use This Company
Thursday, November 17, 2005
I too would give zero stars if Judy's book made that technically possible. This company is terrible, ridiculously over priced and more a scam than a legitimate plumber, in my opinion. I called for an estimate on a simple leak (hole) in an exposed pipe.
Of three companies called, Southwest made a bid 3 to 4 times more expensive than the others. They also claimed an entire section of house plumbing needed to removed and installed new. Southwest also quotes in fixed prices. So while the prices are set, you as a consumer have no way of knowing how much of that price is for labor, materials, mark up, etc.
Our simple leaks was fixed by an old fashioned, honest plumber for about 1/3 of what Southwest quoted. If you consider using Southwest, call the Attorney General's office to check their complaints. To no suprise, today's PI lists Southwest as one of the worst plumbbers in the state:
