      Status:

      Papa Plumbing attended my residence on January 15 2024. The blower on the furnace was not coming on. The furnace motor has a pulley attached to another pulley on the blower with a belt between the two. **** said the motor was not functioning and was worth $1200. They gave me a price of $1478 to replace the motor. The next day I contacted a place and found out I could get a motor for $240. I had another person attend to locate the problem and they simply tugged on the belt between the pulleys and the motor started. He explained that when the blower gets dirty and stops it will stick and the motor doesn't have enough power to restart the blower.. He cleaned the blower and everything works fine. I felt that I was lied to by Papa about the price of the motor and they misdiagnosed the problem I don't want to pay $250 for someone to come and tell me something which is untrue and provides incompetent service.

      I can't say I can recommend them. I called them on Friday after a different company alerted me that our water pressure in the house was twice over what it should be and we needed a plumber to change the water pressure regulator. I needed someone today (Saturday) as we weren't available other days. They said they could come and quoted me a $1,000 for a water pressure regulator. It seemed like a high price but I didn't know better and I agreed to it though I did mention it sounded expensive. When the worker came and did the job, we had an initial good experience. He did the job very rapidly. As in 20min from the time he had the right part. Then, comes payment, he quotes us $1,285 + tax. I was taken aback and I told him I had been quoted $1,000. My husband was livid as he felt we were being ******. The worker called office and came back with $1,100 as a flat fee which I paid as I had agreed on the phone. With hindsight, the part costs $150. The job wasn't involving crawling under the house whatsoever and it was a quick job, done under 1h. Yes, it was a weekend but the bill doesn't provide any breakdown of the price. It feels like I've been taken advantage, maybe because I sounded like a desparate woman? That kind of money will take me weeks of work to achieve.
