Sean did explain the shut off valves under the sink didn't workHowever, when Ryan from Lifeline Plumbing was there on Saturday (I wanted a second opinion), and since Sean refused to come out and fix what he didn't fix originally, Ryan told me that if Sean could not turn off the water there was no way that the cartridge could have been replaced because the water had to be turned offRyan said the shut off valves under the sink worked perfectly fine, and he was able to shut off the water to the sink using the shut off valves under the sink with no issueWhen he took apart the faucet he was able to see that the cartridge was never replacedThe main shut off valves did not need to be replaced in order to fix the sink, and I was not going to replace the main valves without a second opinion as there were no issues with the valves prior to Sean from A1-Plumbing coming to the house I called Sean to complain because my tenants turned on the water after Sean replaced the cartridge to do dishes, and the leak was worse than before Sean came to look at the issueI explained to him what the issue was, and he was paid to fix the sink, and it was not fixedI am not paying $for a repair that never took place as confirmed by the 2nd plumber Ryan from Lifeline that came out the next daySince he said there was no way that any repair could have been done if the water could not be turned offClearly the water could have been as the 2nd plumber had no issues with the under sink shut off valves working for himRyan at Lifeline said at best the faucet was only cleaned and greased, but that is it, no cartridge replacement I am looking for a full refund as this repair was not done and I and my tenants were lied to about the under sink shut off valves since the 2nd plumber was able to use the valves to replace and fix the issue that Sean was paid for and never did the job,and refused to come out and fix without additional payment Per reviews on A1-Mullins Plumbing there are other consumers who paid for services that were never done as that occured with me Final Business Response / [redacted] (4000, 14, 2015/09/21) */ My first question is Did the other company replace or repair the old faucet? Secondly I told the customer that the faucet should be replaced there are two companies that used the cartridge I replaced, one being Moen the other being Glacier BayI also explained that if it was a Moen faucet how to have Moen replace it for free under warrantyWhen I was called back I asked if they had a replacement faucet, to which they said they didn'tin my opinion there were two reasons for the leak, one being the cartridge (of which I had used the last one I had in stock), or the sprayer supply line had failed due to corrosion (which I had pointed out that the inlet and outlet lines were all corrodedI will not argue with a customer over the phone under any circumstancesUnder the circumstances it was my belief that the faucet needed replacementAlso the cartridge in question has many design flaws (Which is why Moen discontinued their use) Final Consumer Response / [redacted] (4200, 16, 2015/09/22) */ (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
