Is there any way you can go after the first guy, the "plumber", and get some $$ from them for the damage he caused?

Hopefully everything will work out fine in the end.

Merry Christmas!

To be honest with you FT...I have thought about it....and decided it will be more of a headache and a pain in the a$$...my a$$...and I will never see a dime so.....screw it! Chalking it up to lesson learned!

Sorry Tony if my last post sounded rude? I did not mean it to be! I am wound pretty tight right now!

Thanks for the offer....I do appreciate it. I have a oil burner license...but I did tank replacements and installs so my first hand knowledge and hands on beyond the firomatic valve at the burner pump was very limited. So I bow to those who do it for a living......I just picked a bad apple to start with!

When I lived on Long Island, and had an oil fired boiler, we not only had at least a dozen heating oil companies to choose from, but because there was so much competition, every one included a service contract. You locked into a 5 year deal, they included free repair service. It never took more than an hour for the service guy to respond and fix anything that went wrong. Don't oil companies around here do the same (we have gas here)?

When my ex needed a complete new system, the oil company financed it with an interest-free loan if she agreed to a 5 year contract.

Larry what time is the party and whats on the menu

If I need any parts , that is

So you can turn around

Said he would be here at 4...just called taking the backroads...traffic.....I am guessing 8:00! From Sharon!

Slingah · 12-23-2009, 04:36 PM

that's good news...I think your lucky you got someone, and the deal on the parts was pretty sweet.....hope all goes well!
good to hear your signing with someone...the cost of the plan is a wash with what you'd pay for a clean-out....and your like me usage wise, difference is like a hundred buck in fuel cost....
