Darlene B.
Allied Plumbing was called by Old Republic Warranty Company for water heater problem. When Dominique replaced the 40 year old water heater with a new model (which was slightly shorter than the old one) he left "insulated" wires exposed at the water heater and the electric box. This could have easily been corrected by shimming it while the tank was empty. He used existing bricks that propped other tank but I informed him before hand that I had many options of bricks and I had 12x12 pavers. Alternatively, he could have guided the wires through new conduit. When he finished the job and the tank was FULL he said I needed to hire an electrician to fix it, that his job was to reconnect the wires and that guiding wires through conduit was not within his job description...that required an electrician (not covered by the warranty company). So because he did not finish the job, my choice is to empty the 50 gallon tank and shim it properly or spend beaucoup dollars to have an electrician guide some wire through conduit, both costly options and really unacceptable in my opinion. Also, the tank is leaning. I am not a professional to know if this is more than an aesthetic issue, but the old one was not doing that.
