    I called **** from Alfalla's Well Drilling & Pumps Inc. on July 29, 2022, to come check out a well-water issue at my house, and I was told he would come out to do a consultation that would cost $350. **** came out, same day, to do the consultation and said if there was something that could be fixed the same day, he would do it, but it would cost between $50-$200 additional. I told him that is no problem. After he was "done," he told me his service came out to $1900. I was stunned because he had not informed me prior to completing any work how much everything would come out to be. I told him I did not have the kind of money today, and he proceeded to tell me that that wasn't his problem and that I needed to pay him right now. I paid partly cash and credit card, and did not receive a receipt. I paid out of fear and frustration, but now, three days later, August 1, 2022, my water still does not work. I called **** back and he said my pump must be broken, and that he can come out and fix it for an additional cost estimated over $600, despite **** telling me my pump was fine on July 29, 2022. **** isn't delivering services he claims to have completed and is overcharging people without proper notice of estimated cost. If I had known about ****'s poor business practices, I would have never entrusted him with the job.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
