      Apparently the City of ****************** Department Hired All Clear to do a lead study. This resulted in All Clear entering my private property and digging two, 2 foot deep holes near my water meter pit. This occured the week of March 3rd. I was told by the city that the company would fill the holes in, but here we are April 21st and the holes are still in my yard. The city blames the contractor and refuses to do anything about it. The contractor needs to come out and fill in the holes they put in my yard, without my permission.

      I spoke with **** from All Clear, he was very apologetic.  They filled the holes last week, and took care of everything.  My main complaint is how the City of California handled this issue, not All Clear.  I wanted to file a complaint against the city of **********, but didnt know how.

       

      All Clear was very attentive once they became aware of the situation and provided excellent customer service to resolve the issue.

      After receiving your letter, I personally went to ***********************************************  The hole in *** ******** yard was already filled by All Clear Pumping and Sewer prior to us receiving your letter of complaint.  I went to the door and spoke to *** ****** who apologized for writing into the BBB and not contacting All Clear Pumping and Sewer LLC prior to his complaint.  He said that he was going to personally write into the BBB to let you know that the issue has been resolved.

      There was a plumber that came over named ***** that came over 5 times to replumb the bathroom. I never informed him that I wanted two showers in my bathroom but he set it up that way. I found out that the pipes for the bathroom and the washing machine was the wrong size. He had to redo the bath tub and the washing machine pipes , he had pipes coming out of the floor for a floating vanity when they should be in the wall, so he put the pipes that were in the floor in the walls and come to find out the drain pipes in the wall were loose. I hired another plumber to fix all of *****'s mistakes. The new plumber had to fixe the drain pipe in the vanity, and other various things. ***** did not test pressure or put caps on the water lines to secure them. Now I have a leak behind my wall from *****'s mistake and now I have to tear down all of my drywall to fix the mistake. I paid the business $2500.00. I would like to be refunded $2500.00.

      The technician met with ******* **** in January of 2023 to
      provide an estimate for removal and replacement of fire-damaged kitchen and
      bathroom plumbing.  ******* and the
      technician discussed the plan and a few days later ******* was presented with
      an estimated of $5,000.  ******* approved
      the estimate, paid a $2500 deposit, and ***** scheduled the work.  When the technician arrived to replace the
      plumbing, ******* had decided he wanted to add plumbing in the bathroom; one
      for a bathtub and one for a shower.  He
      also wanted to run approximately 30ft of gas line to the stove and run a new
      waterline to the dishwasher.  This was
      not discussed during the initial walk-through and was not included in the
      estimate, but the technician completed this extra work at no cost to
      *******.  Shortly thereafter, ******* notified the technician via text that he would like to change a few things,
      specifically he scrubbed to plan to install a floor mount vanity and instead
      wanted a floating vanity.   The
      technician made the changes and ******* looked them over and approved.  One day later, ******* informed the
      technician that he wanted to change locations of a few things.  The technician once again made the requested
      changes.  Shortly thereafter ******* hired a foundation company to install foundation anchors.  In doing so, they removed sections of pipe
      that the technician was asked to replace. 
      Once the sections were replaced, the technician and ******* looked over
      the work and ******* said everything looked great and he would be calling the
      office to make the final payment of $2500. 
      Several days later ******* contacted the technician stating he was not
      going to pay the remaining balance because the work was not performed
      correctly.  He eventually communicated
      his concerns and the technician returned to correct them.  Once again, ******* thanked the technician
      (via text) for making things right and even informed the tech he left a tool
      behind and made arrangements for the technician to retrieve it.  Several days passed and ******* began calling
      and harassing the technician.  Text
      messages are included in this response. 
      ******* also called the office and left vulgar voicemails.  Those are available upon request.
