I cannot tell you how much of a difference it made in the transition of when you don't know about plumbing to when you actually start learning the trade.

The first plumber on the second water heater using two hands on Channellocks didn't look like he's used them much either. If you have to use two hands on Channellocks just put them down. Chris Hansen wasn't too familiar with them either. I was thinking "open them up dude". I don't think Adrian was intentionally trying to rip them off, he just isn't educated in the field of plumbing. He worked at a bank before getting into the handyman business apparently. He could have saved face by saying that he had made a bad call, he was sorry and have a nice day.

This is WAY more common than you think, especially the "home repair" field. I used to have a company in Texas, that specialized in "handicap" (we worked with the actual STATE of Texas) .. anything from wheelchair ramps, to wheelchair shower installation and grab bars in showers. The great thing with that type of work is, you have to be licensed and up to date with the codes, as every single job you do before getting paid is inspected by the State of Texas. There were so many times I had to actually go out there and fix or even repair what other companys(that worked with the State) had done. They literally threw a piece of plywood down and called it a wheelchair ramp for a 75 yr old lady... It didn't take long for Texas to pull of their contracts from outside sources and put everything under their own banner.... The easiest thing I can tell you is... Never feel like you don't have a say so when you're talking with your contractor about work and if you feel like you're being "pressured" to go in the direction they want, but its not what you were wanting at all.. Then by all means, speak your mind as you're the client or find a company that wouldn't make you feel like you got strong armed for a quick buck.

Chris Hansen did catch a 17-year old "predator" in one episode. He thought the kid was lying about his own age, when the kid said he was 17. Then the kid produced a real ID to show he was 17, and Chris Hansen had to apologize to him and let him go free, because in the state it happened, it wouldn't technically be illegal for two minor teenagers to make those kinds of plans together.

Plumber: its gonna explode Me a 14 year old: knows water can't explode

lifelong electrician here , I enjoy watching you outing these fly-by-night "companies" . I couldn't agree more with you about building a relationship with customers. In my early years I worked for contractors who used similar scamming tactics. They sit behind a desk in the heat and ac and ask you to do their lying. FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT ! oh and nice mustache there mustache ;)

If your a handy man, stick with being a handy man. If your a plumber, be the best plumber that you can be. I loved that

I know that feeling being an honest auto mechanic. I hate the A-holes that try to rip people off. There's enough legitimate repair work out there if we just do it at a fair price that we don't need to create more work.

Hearing Chris Hansen say "I think you're lying to me" is hilariously disturbing.

I wish there were more honest guys like you out there

One roofer said I needed new shingles. Needless to say I never called him back. I knew the shingles were only a few years old. I got a reference from my awesome plumber. The roofer got on the roof. Inspected everything. Told me everything looks only a few years old. I should have called my plumber the first time. 🤦‍♂️ My plumber also gave me a reference for an electrician. He was great too.

Yep

I’d love to see this happen to the plumbing company I work for, our customers love us!

I'm no plumber but my dad was...the first thing I do that I learned from my dad is check all points of failure..and if you think that a joint is loose, then tighten it and check again.

I work in retail, and our company has discovered that if a customer rates their satisfaction as 9 out of 10 rather than even 8 out of 10, they'll spend an order of magnitude more money in our store per year on average. This gives us pretty free reign to prioritise customer loyalty and satisfaction over any sale we could foist on them today. Also, happy customers bring more customers, angry customers drive other customers away. If we can easily fix something without spare parts, we fix it for free. If they need something we don't carry, we'll find the best place to get it. If they think they have to buy a replacement 100$ widget and all they really need is a 3$ gizmo, we'll tip them about the gizmo. I'm really happy that we're never incentivised to work against the customer's best interest, as I would refuse to take advantage of other people like that.

Yes so true. Especially these days where people talk on social media. 1 outstanding service comment is worth its weight in gold. I went to a jiffy lube the other day due to get an oil change and fix a rattle that I thought was a serpantine belt. when I'd start my engine. It seemed to increase when I revved. The guy says we don't fix rattles but let me recommend someone who could help you. I said well I still need an oil change...You know what he told me? He said in a hushed voice "They do oil changes there for like $22.50...The guy proceeds to give me the name of this little hole in the wall muffler place across town. I look up their ratings online. 4.5/5 with 60+ positive comments. I was like Wow that guy is fantastic! So I drive the 20 mins or so it took to get over there and wait. After awhile the guy looks at my car and brings me over. He says see this? "points to heater shield" this is what was causing all that rattling. He shakes it with his hand and it starts rattling. Wow ok is it easy to fix? Yeah we can just tighten it. I said that's great! Can you do an oil change as well? He said of course! Guess how much it cost me? $42.35 cents to get my heater shield and oil changed! Whenever I have an issue I'm going there! They made a life long customer that day! They could have told me anything and I would have paid it.

5:09 right after the guy said "yes it is" i got that credit card commercial ad that starts off with Dr. Evil saying "how bout NOOO". I lol'd. Then skipped the ad.

He said "I'm a big fan" haha yeah after blowing all that hot air!🤣

Imagine having Chris Hansen coming out when you're not a pred. but just a plumber. I'd worry if I ever asked my client about how old their waterheater was or anything along those lines that could get misconstrued by the wrong person 🤣

my favorite line from this is: "i don't know that part of his story i wasn't there." and the news guy is like "YOU'RE HIS WIFE".

Hansen: “I’m Chris Hansen of Dateline NBC, and we’re doing a-“ Plumber: “Hey, Jenny said she’s a homeowner. How is she not an adult?”

Good stuff Roger, I appreciate the content. I really like your watch btw.

Love your humour Roger 🤣

As a trades person these types of things always break my heart. I, like many, have spent countless hours with my craft. I will always show the customers exactly what the issue is. Of something is broken I will show them the broken part. Our company tends to be more expensive (for many reasons) but part of that is that all of us are certified and highly trained. Also if Chris walks into the room I would be less concerned about my water heater lol

I was a plumber and for this reason I quit. the company I was with wanted us to do this kinda thing and I can't stand not being honest with a customer. loved this show!

The small part of the trades are bad at their jobs at the sort of levels you would put onto a tv show, the majority are usually under tooled to carry out the work, I find the larges5 grief I get is the cost, but the rates are set out, they usually have quotes all around the same figures and the difference between everything is how relatable you are to the client. A good plumber or even an average plumber will have more work than he or she will ever want to know about.

My Grandfather was a Plumber for 30 years, he hated, hated other Plumbers that did this to people. He would tell them, “if another plumber is throwing big numbers out at you, give me a call and I will make it out to you.” Many times he didn’t take money from folks that were scammed or when another plumber overcharged them and did a really poor job. He would say “if you’re gonna do a job do it right, there is no job too big or too small not to be appreciated.”
