Jerome Kopensky review about company Mike Scott Plumbing In Ocala

Called Mike Scott Plumbing back in February about a leak coming from a pipe in the water heater. They sent a "plumber" out, who within 10 seconds of entering my garage said I needed a new water heater. I have a bit of experience with plumbing work and knew the issue could be repaired without replacing the water heater. The "plumber" said its either $700+ to replace the water heater, or $85 for his service call. I sent him on his way without signing paperwork and told his manager to call me. No call from a manager. I called and left 2 messages for a manager to call me back. No return calls. (1) No one disclosed any "trip charge" or "service fees" or the amount they would be, and (2) I had a neighbor fix the issue within 15 minutes (without replacing the water heater). This "plumber" shows up at 4:45 an seemingly didn't feel like doing repair work, only quoting a replacement price. Manager never called back. Fast forward six months later; I received a letter asking for payment or they are sending to collections. There are much more trustworthy and honest plumbers to use in Ocala and Marion County. These guys are not it.
