My kitchen faucet needs to be replaced - it can't be completely turned off and the steady stream is annoying me. I called the property managers and asked for it to be repaired. They called a plumbing company, who contracts with the owners' home warranty insurance company. I set up an appointment, for the plumbers to come out and was ASSURED, by both the property manager AND the plumbing company, that I didn't have to pay the $50 show-up cost.
This morning, the plumber showed up and IMMEDIATELYtried to shake me down, for the $50. I called the property manager, who talked to the plumber, who was on the phone with HIS office, at the same time. No one was budging and I certainly wasn't going to give this bozo $50 of MY hard-earned money, when I am only renting.
The upshot is, the property manager will bring over a check, for $50, Monday morning and the plumber will fix my faucet (I hope).
I will be SO glad, when I can buy my OWN house. My dad owns a home repair business and things will be fixed quickly AND fixed right, the FIRST time.
