Plumb Perfect

Frances B.

So appreciate the timely response and patience offered. Have used Plumb Perfect for a number of years. Never let me down.

As others have stated, it's hard to know where to start because there is so much to say about why NOT to EVER use Stan / Plumb Perfect. We called Stan to do two things in two bathrooms in our condo - replace the flooring and replace the toiletS. Yes, he's a plumber supposedly, but he ""had a guy"" to do the flooring. One toilet leaked, we had to get another contractor to fix the floor that came up from the toilet leaking...on and on.
However, what is most offensive about Stan is the intense, unwarranted, obnoxious, rude, and inaccurate texting that Stan engages in. It is out and out harassment. All we wanted was to get the job he was contracted to do done correctly.
He has chastised us for using Bath Fitters to refit our tubs, gotten ruder than hell with us for hiring a licensed Rennai installer to replace our Rennai heater, and 4 years after the fact, keeps texting that we ""screwed"" him when we hired a licensed, recommended by the manufacturer, contractor to install a very expensive heating system in another home we owned.
He goes into homes, looks around, and then butts into business that has nothing at all to do with him. He actually tried cajoling us into tearing out the brand newly installed Bath Fitter tubs so he could ""do a more professional job."" Yah, right!
The final straw with him is that he is now texting that he is going to file a suit against us with the anti-defamation league over anti-semitism. We really and truly think that Stan Selig is mentally unstable and should not be allowed to hold himself out as a plumber. He lacks a license and is borderline insane.
We have tried several times to settle our financial obligation to him, but he won't hear of discussing it. He never got the job finished correctly, so we proposed a lower price, given that, and rather than discuss what makes sense, he babbles on about topics that have nothing to do with the job. AVOID THIS PERSON AND BUSINESS AT ANY AND ALL COSTS!

Stan was able to get 2 plumbers to my house within an hour for a nasty emergency situation. It was a doozy that required specialized tools they did not have, so they referred another plumber who was able to take care of the situation. Stan and his 2 employees were incredibly kind and professional. Stan called that eve to inquire if everything had been fixed. When I asked about a bill, he said he would not charge me because his men couldn't assist that day. I greatly appreciated that, and also his quick responsiveness, follow up, kindness and fairness. I would absolutely refer others to Plumb Perfect.

These guys are super unprofessional and take forever to do their work. 0/10 rating.

Do not waste your time or money on Stan the Plumber unless you enjoy being treated like trash. I called several plumbers and left messages to respond to an urgent situation. Stan texted me over an hour later, at which time I had gone with another outfit due to availability. I thanked Stan for his text and his response was, ""you make me sad!!"" Who in the hell wants to be talked to like that, especially in an emergency situation? Stan is an aggressive jerk in need of a serious reality check about customer service. Avoid Stan at all cost!!!

I had a pipe burst in the middle of the night and this was the first number that came up on a google search. Stan came out to my house, didn't even kneel down to look at the burst pipe, stood around and shined a light at my boiler, but didn't actually touch or do anything.
He then sat himself down at my dining room table, proceeded to insult my house, insult the cleanliness of my basement and insult my boiler/heating system and my intelligence at buying a house with this type of boiler. (he also told me about his online dating history -- which I did not ask for nor want -- would he have done that with a man?).
He was unable to do the job due to his unfamiliarity with my heating system, gave me the number of a different plumber. I hired the other plumber to do the job, but Stan continued to call me repeatedly starting at 7 am. when I didn't answer, he sent progressively more aggressive text messages about intending to finish the job (that he didn't even start!) and that he deserved the job as he was there first. The messages were extremely unpleasant and unprofessional and I was forced to block his number. Found out upon further investigation that he isn't even licensed.
Call someone else.

Please do not use Plumb Perfect for a bathroom renovation. Here are just a few highlights of our renovation nightmare.

Stanley Selig, the owner of Plumb Perfect sends you to places to shop for your fixtures and materials to get the best price, and then you find out it is so he can jack up the price and charge you 15% - 20% more.

When you finally agree to a proposal, Stanley comes by to pick up the first check, then you hear nothing for weeks.

The job starts with no warning 6 weeks after you give him the first check. Stanley Selig says he is ""hands on"" and the only time you see him is when he comes by for a check. 4 weeks into the job, when the shower tiling was almost finished he came by for another check. No other inspection of the job.

The drain for the vanity was cut but not capped. No consideration was given to the fact that the washing machine shares the same wall. When I used the washing machine, the new vanity and the new floor were flooded. The leak created a water stain on the living room ceiling downstairs. When contacted it took 2 days for him to send someone to correct. In addition to texts saying it could not be their fault.

The money he collected for the job, was completely mismanaged and he started harassing for more money. The brand new shower leaked and left more water stains on the ceiling below. When I contacted him, extremely upset, he texted ""give me the money or no fix"". When I responded that his was the most unprofessional company I had ever dealt with, Stanley's response was a text saying, ""You are the most demanding nasty customer we have ever dealt with"", he denied being aware of the shower design, and said ""your bad vibes has made the shower leak"". (His men who actually installed the shower, showed up half hour later and repaired the drain. They apologized profusely for the behavior of their boss. They obviously have pride in the work they do, even if their boss does not).

Stanley took over the vanity top installation because he wanted more money. He sent 1 worker to install a 48"" quartz top. My husband had to help with the install and thankfully was not hurt.

The job that was supposed to take 3 weeks actually took 7 weeks and some of it had to be completed privately.

I could go on and on, but I think you get the point. Beware!

Had a kitchen sink plumbing issue, that called for a quick response. And while engaged, I figured also ask Plumb Perfect (sic) to swap out a disposal.

The cost charged for the replacement Disposal was more than fair.
5/8 Evolution Disposal and charged $269.00
Labor for what felt an hour was $270.

But the work done to shore the under-sink plumbing was not even close. Quickly apparent that while the pvc was replaced (to replace the fit to the sink itself) , unfortunately, I still have a necessary lobster pot to catch the leaking water.

My fault not to call immediately and request to have things squared.

I just recently, though, had an upstairs bathroom sink that I was hoping to have cleared up. And so the opportunity to get back in touch with Stan and ask: ""Hey. I have this plugged bathroom sink, can you lend a hand, and in the meantime perhaps take a look at the still compromised kitchen sink.""

Texts back and forth.

Stan indicated he would send somebody by at no cost.
And as quickly rescinded his offer.
After I had indicated I was absolutely willing to pay what I felt a reasonable rate, all things considered.

I would politely suggest that long term relationships and foundational plumbing -- not to be found.

I wish I were mistaken.

Literally only ever calling this guy in an emergency ever again and as a last resort. Incredibly bad communication skills, and his solutions to problems are extremely questionable, despite being ""incredibly experienced"". Plus he doesn't have a plumbers license? Is that true? Is that even legal?

I get that he prides himself on his ""tell it how it is"" attitude. Too bad he doesn't have a good idea of ""how it is"".

If I could leave zero stars I would. He was the most wildly unprofessional person I have ever dealt with. After trying to work with him on a small project for 7+ months I finally walked away and found someone else. He suggested I purchase fixture brands he previously said to stay away from, he then wanted to choose the fixtures for us instead of letting us choose them. (Are you kidding me??!!). He refused to work with certain bath/kitchen stores in the area as well as refusing to install certain fixture brands. At times he blocked my phone calls yet refused to correspond via email. When we did talk, his conversations were all over the place, he was constantly contradicting himself leaving us bewildered. He set a date to start the project but then when he never called to confirm the night before and I reached out to him, he said that the life of a ""service"" plumber means that he can't commit to any sort of specific work timeline. Meanwhile, the Better Business Bureau has an alert for his business indicating he does not have the necessary license from the Vermont Department of Public Safety. I think I dodged a bullet. Horrible, horrible.
