DO NOT USE Plumbarama in Bensalem. They are extortionists and violate the law. We had a plumber come out to the house to fix a leak in our bathtub faucet. The technician that arrived would not give a proper estimate only quoting his hourly rate. Only until asked several times for an estimate, did he provide one. We then contacted our landlord for approval, however they were unavailable. The technician then told us there would be a trip charge and started demanding payment. Once I pointed out that at no point was I notified there might be such a charge, the technician stated it was on their advertisements. Well guess what folks, its not. This technician was trying to make us pay for nothing. By law these fees are allowed only if stated up front. Called the company to complain, but I'm sure they are in on it. The owner called me back yelling and cursing telling me I am going to pay and then hung up on me.
