The original call to make the appointment left a very sour taste in my mouth. The secretary was quite rude & talked to me like I was someone who had no clue about plumbing at all. Which is rather humorous, because I actually know most likely more than her! I have done 2 decades of electrical & plumbing work for a local gas company & am pretty sure that the very impersonable gal has never gotten her nails dirty. So, I called to cancel the appt. soon after, when I realized that I could probably just deal with the old body aches over paying a company that employed her, & had to leave a message, which was even more impersonable! Glad I saved myself about $200, at the least, & won't ever have to talk with her again! Can't imagine how friendly the service techs are!
Description of Work: Fixing a leaking kitchen faucet. Also, requested for a snake to used on some drains that kept backing up.

I dug out the small area by the house he requested and removed several plants. I even called his office to tell him the work had been done. My wife was at home when he arrived. I planned to be there about 30-minutes later. David immediately showed her attitude because we had not trenched out four sections along the driveway where new lines were to be run. Confused and frankly not wanting to take David's guff, my wife got me on the phone to talk with David. H didn't say hello he just launched into a very belligerent and loud dialogue that we hadn't dug out the other trenches. I explained to him my understanding, which he refuted, and he told me--for the third time--that "it is just me, myself and I" that does the work because he does not have any help. My response was that I was sorry for the misunderstanding but I had never heard of a plumber who said they worked on sprinkler systems that was not prepared prepare shallow narrow trenches. From my experience in Texas, the trenches were never hand dug, but a small trenching machine was always used. Plus, I told him, "how was I to know exactly where the new sprinkler heads would need to be placed since I had no expertise designing sprinkler systems." He then got so irate that he hung up on me. There was no apology for the misunderstanding and no offer to try to make things right. Bowen left me hanging with a total mess on my hands as you can see below. Maybe Bowen Plumbing can fix a leaky toilet, but after my experience I can't even vouch for that.
Description of Work: WHOVER HEARD OF A PLUMBER WHO REPAIRS AND INSTALLS SPRINKLER SYSTEMS THAT EXPECT THE CLIENT TO DIG THE TRENCHES FOR HIM: I contacted Bowen Plumbing because of the rating on Angie's list. A time was scheduled and David arrived on time as promised. He was courteous if a bit reserved. After talking with him, he asked me to dig out a sensitive area around the front window where there were plants and where leaks were occurring. I agreed. He also said he needed to move sprinkler lines along the driveway to get the coverage we needed with half-circle broadcast nozzles. We agreed on the work to be done and scheduled a time the following Thursday. He gave an estimate which I approved.

Response from Bowen Plumbing, Inc.
In response to your complaint, first and foremost we apologize for the misunderstanding on your sprinkler system. Mr. Bowen tried to let you know he was not interested in the job when he came to bid it, as he saw the complexity of the work and he was very busy with other jobs. And that's probably the same reason the other plumber and sprinkler person didn't want to take the job. Unfortunately, he does not have enough help right now, but you told him that you would have the trenches dug out when he came back to repair leak and extend sprinkler heads to driveway. A trench cannot be dug with a trenching machine when there are underground utilities all over. It had to be hand dug, (which would have made it a lot more expensive). There were six other trenches that needed to be hand dug besides the one at the window, and they were not dug. Mr. Bowen should have marked with flags the places that sprinkler heads were supposed to go, since it probably would have been a little more clarified, but you indeed said you would have them dug and you didn't. He then talked to you on the phone and told you it would be best if you found someone else to do the job since the trenches were not dug. We, at Bowen Plumbing, Inc. are so sorry that we wasted your time and ours, but not a penny changed hands, nor are these pictures a reflection of any work that was done by Mr. Bowen. The only thing changed was the trench dug by the window, and you had that done, In retrospect, Mr. Bowen should have declined the job, even though you insisted on digging the trenches yourself. Again we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
