What the hell happened to it?
I'm a first-time homeowner and have started having problems around the house that I'm not sure how to fix. I assumed I could call someone to come out and fix at least some of them. Wrong!
I'm sure many of you read this in my previous post, but I called at least a half-dozen pool service people before I finally had one even take the time to return my call. This guy comes out the day before our scheduled appointment when I'm not at home and now, mysteriously, my pool is all jacked up and I still can't get someone out to fix it! Three weeks and the only way I can filter my f*cking pool is by running the spa! Since then, I've called two more people. One stood me up on Saturday that I haven't heard from and another one today I'm still waiting on for a call back. I'm not holding my breath.
I purchased a gas vented log set at Lowe's for almost 200 bucks only to get home and find out that it must be "professionally installed". This time I tried a website that boasted I would get several quotes for the service requested. I posted exactly what I needed and have had twelve plumbers review it without a single response. I did get several brochures, however, in case I had other problems they wouldn't respond to.
Screw it, except for the chimney cleaning, I'll do the fireplace myself. Neither chimney sweep in my area has returned my call.
I realize many businesses are busy and probably can't service my requests, but for God's sake, at least provide me the courtesy of a call back to tell me you can't do it right now and possibly recommend someone who can.
I'm done.
