Worker showed up drunk at my house. Did not ask before installing components, then charged me for them. No show at least 3 times. Impossible to get a receipt for purchases or any type of time spent on the job accountability. The worst experience ever. Ask if they are licensed in Vermont, my search says no.

If I ever had one piece of advice it would be to NEVER hire Stan. Stay far away from Plumb perfect. Stan not only created a flood in my house but he left in the middle of it. I am so grateful someone in my unit noticed he left and I was able to get him to come back. After he stoped the flood and he left again without going over his work with me. When I went up to my shower there was a hole and no shower handle. Both were left on the ground. Horrified I called him and asked him to put the shower back how he found it. He told me I was wasting his time. On top of this if he ever did show for his appointment he was late and most of the time he never showed up. He also charged me $550 before ever fixing anything. All he did was cause a flood that he never even apologized for. Stan is also very rude, he was not only awful to me but my mother as well. After refusing to work with Stan anymore I hired Falcon plumbing and WOW they were amazing. They came and fixed the same problem Stan had been working on over the course of months in a matter of 30 minutes and only charged me $250 for everything. Please never hire Stan. He is a scammer and has no idea how to be a plumber.
He is also NOT LICENSED. STAY FAR AWAY.

Stan isn’t licensed(found this out today unfortunately). His rates are outrageous for sub par work. Billed out 6 hours to connect sink drain to the wall and the 2 water lines. He had 1-2 hours on site, the other 4 hours were back and forth to store because he couldn’t get it right the first, second, or third trip. Installed a sink in our rental. Also tried to tell me that he need power cord for dishwasher, when I knew it wasn’t needed as personally installed the power cord. He questioned me about it being there as he “didn’t see”. Left the place a mess with cuttings and shaving and pipe pieces all over. I showed up to check things out, turned the faucet on and the drain leaked instantly. So figured we’d check other things, glad we did as we found he never tightened the discharge hose from dishwasher to the drain. Glad we caught that, or could have had more water issues. My partner mentioned to him about finding the clamp not being tightened and his response was: “oh you saw that?. Trying to save others from this business.

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.

DO NOT HIRE STAN! This guy is a snake oil salesman and is not a licensed plumber. Read the Yelp reviews.

He destroyed my bathroom and first floor with a simple bathroom vanity install.

Professionalism: The moment Stanley walked into my house he was criticizing anything his beady little eyes touched – from the fixtures we’ve chosen to the paint colors in the house to the painters we chose to paint the house (they were there working on the house simultaneously. He would go from bathroom to bathroom commenting on what needed to be changed and had a reason why.

Timeline: We hired Stanley to install a vanity (the old vanity was already taken out). It took him 5 days to install the vanity. 1 guy quit on him on the job – and even called him a thief in the process. Stan also complained how this was such a big job and there were so many connections.

Quality: Abysmal. He never connected the drain pipe so all of the water from the vanity was draining into my first floor ceiling and subsequently down into the basement. I needed to hire a real licensed plumber to come to my house and fix Stanley’s job. Additionally I needed to hire a contractor to fix the sheet rock that was damaged from the flooding.

DO NOT HIRE PLUMB PERFECT! You’ll get ripped off and will need to hire a licensed professional to come back and fix his mess.
