The Water Damage Experts Inc - Joe Mendiola
The Water Damage Experts Inc Joe Mendiola ripoff kickback or referral system throughout california is it legal?

The Water Damage Experts Inc Tax ID #33-0560003 specializes in emergency water damage responce, sewage mitigation, mold remediation and repairs and serves the San Francisco Bay Area

And north to Sacramento and south to the Monterey Bay Area.

TWDE does not use traditional forms of advertizing instead it
operates soley on the referrals of plumbing contractors and pays a kickback of up to 40% of the job for the referral.

TWDE has a suspended contractors licence for lack of a qualifier and no field employees instead uses unlicenced independent contractors to avoid payroll taxes.

TWDE generates 4.5 millon a year and has been at it for about 13 years. TWDE is one of many larger companies engaging in this practice.

In order to cover the cost of these "referral kickbacks" TWDE must hike up their contract prices, it is the property owners and insurance companies who are victimized by this practice daily.

TWDE has contracts with plumbing contractors including ARS Rescue Rooter a subsidary of Service Master to provide free services when the plumber causes the water damage in exchange for referrals.

TWDE regularly holds contest with plumbing contractors including ARS Rescue Rooter for the most referrals, "GO's".

Often $1000.00 and or big prizes, plazma tvs, home theaters or trips, company picknicks all in addition to the payed "referral kickbacks".

Because of these insentives greedy plumbers and independent contractors will resort to any tactict to get a signed contract.

Work is not documented to IICRC standards and is substandard at best!

Plumbers and TWDE will make promisses to home owners to be fully covered by their insurance companies regardless of cost or type of loss.

And when the insurance co does'nt cover the loss the property owner is stuck with the inflated bill.

Plumbers will often discourage clients from using the phone book or other resourses to get competive bids for fear of losing the "referral kickback".

This inhibbits the customer from receiving and the competition from giving competetive bids.

CAL OSHA won't let plumbers enter an area that is contaminated with sewage or flooded until the area is decontaminated by a water damage sewage specialist type company.

So it is real easy to see the corillation between the two services.

Now most property owners, given the situation, will go with the plumbers recommendation because the plumber is familiar with water damage situations. And fall victom to the

Plumber"referral kickback" husstle!

TWDE came out to my home on the referral of a plumber, Rescue Rooter, and charged me $4500.00 to clean up a mess from the broken kitchen line, only to find out later that plumber got 20 to 25% of the job.

That tells me had I looked around I might have saved obout $1200.00 I own a 2 bed room home with about 900 sq ft in the crawlspace.

Not "GOT A FLOOD" how about GOT GOTCHA HEY HEY!!!
