  More info

  We signed a contract with The Bath Authority on 2/29/2024 for a new tub and surround. This was to be a 1 day install. We also asked the sales rep if the people they sent were familiar with installing baths including plumbing on manufactured homes (as we live in one). We were assured that they do.On 4/18/2024 the installer/plumber came and told us that he wasn't real good with the type of plumbing we had, but he would install. The 1st day of install the plumber left for approx. 3 hrs going to get parts he needed. He arrived at 9:45 AM and left at 5PM. On 4/19/2024 the pumber returned at 8 AM. He finished the install at 5PM. On 4/20/2024 we were awaken at 6:30 due to the hot water pipe having split and water gushing out of it. We ended up calling a local plumber (as we had no emergency # for The Bath Authority). The plumber fixed it temporarily as we stated we had a call into the Bath Authority. On 4/20/2024 I called their regular line and left a message for them. On Sunday the cold water pipe was leaking - a slow drip. On Monday, 4/22/2024 ****** returned my call and told me to send him pictures along with invoices for repairing. On 4/29/2024 I sent him (***********************)an email with the photos and 2 invoices - as now we had to replace the floor, underlayment and insulation due to all the water damage. To date we have not received a phone call, email, letter via ***** nothing. We want to be repaid for the monies we had to spend due to their negligence.

  We finally received a call from the bath authority late yesterday. They stated they would be sending a check for the amount I requested. I should receive the check by May 31, 2024.  I will let you know at that time if I am satisfied.

  I sent a response a last week or so stating according to the company The Bat Authority we were supposed to receive a check for the receipts I sent in. To date. Have not received a check. I am very dissatisfied and feel the company is not responsible enough nor caring enough of their customers.

  Reference Complaint 21705330

  I did reply to your email stating you were closing this complaint - but I did email you back twice telling you we had not received the check yet and were waiting for it.  To date we still have not received the check.  ************ is totally irresponsible and do not abide by their words.  I ask that you add this to the initial complaint and help us receive the money that is due us.
