This company is run by a bunch of swindlers! I had a leak in the compression fitting of the yoke to the water meter in my basement. I just didn't want to mess with it, so I called them. They told me the entire yoke had to be rebuilt and it was a custom job. He started measuring everything and said he had to go back "to the shop" to weld it up. I was quoted $850-$950. I couldn't believe it, so I had him call the owner to confirm the quote. Yep, that was the quote... I said, let me think about it overnight.
In the morning, I drove to a plumbing shop on Broadway and they said those are standard yokes made in mass production for each water company (mine is Willows Water). I went downtown and found they actually cost $60 not $950!!! Plus, the company said there was no need to replace it if my leak was at the fitting. They gave me a 20 cent rubber gasket and it fixed the problem fine!!! I called AppleTree Plumbing back and asked them how they SLEEP AT NIGHT!?!?! Don't use this company! Crooks!!!
