re: Home warranty company and plumber having dispute - I get the bill

---

Day 2 - Returned to verify, but equipment was not able to work. Said he was sure of the location of leak, but would need to return with new equipment.

If his diagnostic equipment didn't work, how was he so sure of the location of the leak?

I don't know plumbing but it sounds like he was going to bring a jackhammer into your house and wing it until he found the issue. He's not owed squat for day 2 and certainly not day 3 for talking on the phone about his compensation.

I can't imagine he could put a lien against your house if you never signed a work order, but if he gets hostile maybe you should talk to an attorney.
