WOMAN’S MUM HIRED CHAPALANG LOUSY PLUMBER, ANYHOW FIX TAP THEN WANT ACT GANGSTER

Where can I report aggressive plumber in Singapore?

My parents got a plumber to replace our water tap for kitchen but it leaked one day after he serviced, got him to come back to check about the water leakage.

He was super aggressive towards my mother, from the time he entered he scolded my mother for every single question she asked and even threw his tools bag on the floor several times after we confronted him.

After a while I told him to please speak nicely to my mum, he got even more aggressive, splashed the water everywhere in my kitchen and we quickly get him to leave the house (only 3 girls in the house so we are worried).

But he has our house address and my mum is home alone most of the time, im worried for her safety. My parents found this man through newspaper so I am not sure if he is from a legit company or not.

I have video of him scolding my mother.

Is there anything I can do?

Thank you in advance!

Netizens’ comments

1. u can go PUB website check if he is PUB licensed. i believe they have a search function to search by name. report to PUB if he is not licensed. meanwhile time to find a new plumber.
   quick tip, some town councils website do list some contacts for licensed contractors/plumbers/electrician. i think those are somewhat reliable.
2. Bad service is not illegal unfortunately. You can leave him a poor review somewhere I suppose, but the best course of action is probably to just move on from this incident if your family’s safety is of concern. Someone like him will likely run himself out of business with his poor attitude, you don’t need to get your hands dirty.
3. If he’s a one man show there is nobody to complain to. Best you can do is to make him viral on fb/tiktok. If he belongs to a company you can complain to his boss.
4. OP, if you take it to social media, I’d suggest you blur/cover your mom’s face and change her voice (voice changer) in the video if they are in the video.
   Also, if you take it to social media, just be prepared if that plumber sees the video and comes knocking on the door and your mom’s safety is endangered. Maybe u can install a door camera that can record video and voice. If that plumber comes, make sure that ur mom does not open the door.
5. Authorities probably won’t take action.
   If you really want it, best is to upload it and trend the company. If it’s his own company, the gg the reviews.
   If he’s just a worker, then the boss will deal with him accordingly.
