Dec 10th I hired Tom do some plumbing to a commercial Café. Excuses from start to finish ( except he never finished the job, OR even started the job )
I gave Tom 1000 in cash and he sent me a receipt...... He was waiting for quote on supplies, then his core drill broke, Then he says he had a family emergency in another state and was out of town for 2 weeks. It was a death in immediate family so I never questioned him. He sent me a text asking if he can have the rest of the deposit as quote was higher due to needing a permit. I was out of town at the time but my wife left him a check for $1600 in car for one of his guys to pickup. I figured he was out of town and may have been strapped for cash due to the Holidays. Then he texts me that he needs engineered drawing for the existing plumbing or no permit will be issued. I oblige and have them drawn up. Since then I have not heard a word. Emails, calls, and texts all ignored. As of 1/31 I had my lawyer do a search of the name on my receipt Valor Mechanical. Valor Mech only exists in MN. We dug farther and Tom isn't even registered with the HIC or the State under either name. We dug a bit further and found 2 bad reviews on the BBB. Its safe to assume that Tom is a crook and thinks he can get away with this.
Little does he know that fraudulent or deceptive practices against consumers are prohibited by the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law and any amount over $2000 is a felony. Unfortunately for Tom he stole from the wrong guy. Next time he may want to research his victims to make sure he's not related to lawyers. I hope he enjoys prison food because I'm going in heavy and I wont stop

We hired Tom Adametz on November 20, 2018 to repair a bathroom sink and a bathroom whirlpool tub. Tom started the work and told us he had to order replacement parts. He gave us an invoice and we paid the total less the cost of installing the new parts. The invoice was for $484.00.
Tom removed valve stems from our tub and sink leaving us unable to use our main bathroom.
We paid for them and then waited for him to come back and complete the work. We made calls several times a week, sent text messages and emails but he would not respond. We offered to pick up our new parts and have someone else install them. He had both our old stems and our new stems. In an eight week period he only responded twice with excuses why he hadn't come back and promises with a date that he would complete the work. He would not show up and could not be reached. This went on for a couple months. At one point we contacted our friend who had referred him to us and found that our friend could not excuse him and couldn't understand why he was not completing the work. We finally, after sending him many messages and emails, realized that we had been scammed and have given up on him ever coming back.
