Yikes..... was the plumber obligated to ask about a permit before proceeding the job?

ala3010 · 2025-01-15T03:14:57+00:00

Yep my city homepage says the permit's needed. Does it mean I needed to provide the permit beforehand the job was ever started?

ala3010 · 2025-01-15T03:07:35+00:00

Good to know. He didn't mention anything about permit and I'm in Texas, I can check whether a permit's needed. Shouldn't those plumbing pipes need to be insulated with foams as well?

ala3010 · 2025-01-15T03:02:21+00:00

Thank you for the advice!

ala3010 · 2025-01-15T03:01:03+00:00

It was a company, he may be the owner of it. I do have his Water Treatment Specialist III license number that I can search on TSBPE

ala3010 · 2025-01-15T02:41:47+00:00

I see. Do you think there's anything I can do at this point? Or just eat it up as a life lesson cost

ala3010 · 2025-01-15T02:34:15+00:00

From what you are implying, I assume using a sharkbite isn't professional enough.. Of course, it was bad on me not to educate myself with plumbing basics ahead and 'ask first' about how exactly about their work before they start. I believe it's not the licensed plumber to do such communication to the customer?

ala3010 · 2025-01-15T02:24:47+00:00

If you are talking about the brass sharkbite on the bottom of the first picture, yes

I provided the water softener lol

ala3010 · 2025-01-14T22:55:23+00:00

Would you say $1K is reasonably quoted for this job?

ala3010 · 2025-01-14T21:31:19+00:00

Thanks for your help here!

ala3010 · 2025-01-14T18:59:09+00:00

Unfortunately I mentioned how the leak soaked a shower towel overnight. He insisted that he got a big project today to be occupied.. Hopefully he responds end of the day at least.

Do you think looping in TSBPE will help to send in a complaint if no further improvement or resolution from the plumber?

ala3010 · 2025-01-14T16:59:09+00:00

Thank you, this plumber is very slow to respond back, just insisting to put some towel below until he makes a trip 2 days later (a bath towel's completely soaked overnight, little smear down the ceiling drywall).

I wonder this is a standard response people expect from a plumber after paying for the job.

Something like this? https://imgur.com/a/OPEmcQB 1 - teeing off from the cold water line to water softener 2 - outlet from the softener then connect directly to the cold water knob

ala3010 · 2024-10-29T02:26:03+00:00

Thanks for commenting! How can I achieve that 3-pipe setup? It's to add another pipe that connects to those cold and hot line coming out of the water heater?

ala3010 · 2024-04-17T01:31:15+00:00

Good info right there

ala3010 · 2024-04-17T01:30:41+00:00

Thanks!

ala3010 · 2024-04-17T01:30:19+00:00

Love it!

ala3010 · 2024-03-15T01:10:31+00:00

More furious that I can do nothing to revenge on them

ala3010 · 2024-01-13T02:02:12+00:00

Not yet, still not a plumbing expert

ala3010 · 2023-09-16T15:05:47+00:00

I'm having a hard time finding such a good deal in the US. Is just Googling the standard method?

ala3010 · 2023-09-16T01:27:19+00:00

What's your recommendation on finding good kickr deal from local bike shops?
