Action Plumbing & Heating

Overpriced, no humanity! On 02/23/15 my well pump at the house stopped working and since my 85 year old mother lives with us it was imperative the water be restored as soon as possible. Several plumbers in the area were called but Action Plumbing was the first to respond. Mario's initial quote simply for walking through my doors was $120.00, which I thought at first to be high but I needed the water to get turned back on. Mario got into the well pit and noticed the well pump was not running, he TAPPED on the pump switch and the pump went on. He then said the pressure gauge had stopped working and needed to be replaced. His quote to replace a $10.00 water pump gauge was $256.25. When asked if I could forgo replacing the gauge for the time being, he said the house call would now cost $180. There was very little I could do, Mario spent a little over an hour at the house (of which 20 minutes was used installing the water pump gauge) and when he left I was short $376.35. To make matters worst … the well pump stopped working less then TWO HOURS after Marion from Action Plumbing left. Never will I use their services again and I will certainly not recommend them to anyone.
