It's the plumber, I've come to rip you off!

Tracy - go after the owner with everything you have. It's his fault he hired a sketchy mono like this. Don't they have to be bonded or something to enter people's homes?

He owes you, period. You should NOT have to pay in ANY way (including higher premiums) for this.

TOTAL COSIGN. I work for a plumbing company (new construction, however, not service), and good insurance is required, so go after his insurance.

Although I do have to agree with the owner that plumbers who aren't dumbasses are like finding a needle in a haystack.

Don't file a claim with your insurance. There's always that chance that they won't contact the owner's insurance company. The owner hired the guy and most likely did not do a background check. The owner is at fault.

Tracy, I would check and see if the Plumbing Co. is Bonded.That means they are insured through a Bonding Agency.

Do you have a copy of the Police Report?

The BBB can be like peeing up a rope, they sound good, but (?)!

Keep on the Police's butts about it if it is a significant amount for the jewelry.

Good luck!

Besides the BBB, you could also contact your states AG's office and see if they have anything on this company.

I would just use a "shot-gun" approch to this and contact everyone. Even local media...perhaps.....

Good Idea!!!
Most TV Stations have a report getting screwed site on their webs.

Can really put a hurt on people!

Tell everyone you know about the Company too!
