    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    Hillcrest Plumbing was doing a repair in the rental house in which I was a tenant. The worker broke a large glass carboy which I'd made into a terrarium. No one from the company made any attempt to contact me about it, and when I contacted them, they told me to talk to ***************** (not sure about the spelling) who told me they'd send me a cheque.They didn't send me a cheque. When contacted again he asked for my address and postal code (which I assumed the company had had.) and said he'd send a cheque.He didn't send a cheque.Some time later I phoned and ********** said to come to the store, on Main Street and they'd give me the money for the terrarium they'd broken (and had admitted to breaking).When I got there--this was on Sunday , Jan 21st; they broke my terrarium in October--a different employee involved herself, began questioning me as though I were trying to rip THEM off, even though D.L. told her that their employee (*****) had broken my terrarium with his Saws-all and that they should pay me.After my explaining, again, what had happened, this new representative of Hillcrest Plumbing said that she would locate a new carboy, as the price was too high for what I'd seen for sale second hand. (They don't make teardrop-shaped glass carboys anymore, you can only get them used.)She told me that if she failed to locate one for a better price I could come back and they would write me a cheque for the one I'd seen on Etsy. But they didn't do that.This same employee sent a link to a carboy for sale on Etsy that was half the size of the one they'd broken (and that I'd sent them a picture of with a measuring tape beside it) asking if it would do. I told her it was the wrong size.Then nothing. When I contacted her again, she said that I would have to provide her with a receipt if I wanted to be paid for the property they broke. Otherwise they couldn't write it off. I just don't think these people are acting in good faith anymore.

    BEWARE - this company ***** on the elderly. My 96 year old mother who lives alone, spent thousands of dollars for many unnecessary visits and to replace parts that didn't need to be replaced. Then they provided a quote for $15,000 to dig up the sewer line, which we had another company look at and was totally fine... Shame on this company
