Barci Plumbing And Heating

Barci used cement and threw the debris in the outside garbage can without bagging it. I called and asked them to come back and dispose of the debris. Since they are in the same township they know that Lower Merion Township will not take loose debris thrown into garbage cans without being bagged. He refused to remove the debris, and was hostile, aggressive and abusive on the phone, and demanded immediate payment of his $350.00 bill. I told him I would pay it immediately upon removal of the debris. He refused and said I should do it myself, that it was nothing but cement dust. In fact, the weight of the cement (not dust!) was such that I could not, at 4'11", 89 lbs, 70 yrs old with severe arthritis, manage to empty the large garbage can. This weekend, with the help of a friend, we emptied the cement and debris into trash bags and the township collected it this morning. My friend suggested that we use my iphone to make a video of us emptying the cement and debris from the garbage can and post it with the Mechanics lien notice on Angie's list, which I thought was an excellent idea, but we didn't have a third person to make the video. On Saturday he sent by certified mail a Notice to file Mechanics lien. I called him and told him that our garbage collection is Monday morning, and unless he removed the debris on Sunday that I would post a video of our removing the debris and his notice of the Mechanics lien on Angie's List. He said "I'm not going to remove the cement. If you post a video and the lien notice on Angie's List I'll call the township and tell them you have numerous code violations in your basement, and it will cost you thousands of dollars. Like many houses over a century old, the plumbing was grandfathered in. Any work that I have had done in the 25 years I have lived in the house has been performed by certified plumbers and is up to code. I highly recommend using a plumber who cleans up and disposes of the debris they created, and one who does not threaten their customer's if they post their bad experience on Angie's List.
