Description of Work: Provider drained tub, unclogged bathtub, checked pipes in basement to see no leekage. I can shake the feeling that the work should have cost less. I was not hom so, my mom handled the situation, however I spoke with "Ray" the plumber over the phone. He tried to explain what he was going to do and I understood most of it. However, i have to say, he stated he would be using a small machine plus a vaccum and my mom advised me she only saw him use a vaccum. It seems as though the price of the work amounted to $115 and I was charged about $100 to drain tab. If thsi is the case, i would have appreciated the option and my mom would have drained the tub. Not sure what to make of it. It is just hard times and I do not want to feel like i over paid under any circumstances. Guy was professional, punctual and overall good. I am a bit torn about whether or not i will use again.

Please see above.
Description of Work: I bought from Angie's list for $99 a two hours plumbing work deal which was supposed to be provided by Captain Rooter Plumbing. The plumbing work was supposed to be done in my apartment in a regular residential high rise building in River North, Chicago. I called repeatedly the next day, but he never returned my calls. I sent him emails in order to discuss the work and asked him to forward me his insurance and a copy of his plumbing license as required by the condominium association. He emailed me back asking for another $35 for parking and to provide me with the insurance proof. I told him that I will pay him the additional $35. Then he found another reason not to provide the advertised services. He stated that he does not want to provide services in a commercial building. I repeatedly told him that the building where I live is a residential building not a commercial building. Then he informed me of his definition for commercial building. He stated that every building with more than three apartments is a commercial building and he will not provide any services.

Response from Captain Rooter Emergency Plumbers Chicago
Im sorry but this person purchased A Deal and Did Not READ the Fine Print ! I said that it Was $35 dollars to add There association on To my Insurance Yes, But a high Rise Building Is Considered commercial Building In The City of Chicago And said we can go out there but the DEAL does not cover Commercial Properties and it would be $185 hr. As far as communication There is a 2 days till we can respond back to the customer they got this DEAL on a sunday and sorry if they didnt read that either But i wasn't fast enough for them either. We are located 15min from there property We go all the way out to Naperville and other Suburbs as well as all of Chicago and do this Deal All the time Did not try to get out of work at all just explain the terms over the phone which they weren't happy with and i said you can ask for a refund if you like. I tried to Explain But Thats What Happen when You dont read everything before you buy something. I dont deserve the F they Put for Explaining Terms.... OVER THE PHONE (Did not Even get to the property)
