Sorry for your experience. Seniors against Crime is located in the Government Annex on 446. Phone is 689-4600.

In Florida licensed & insured usually means< he has a drivers license & his truck has insurance

Call the agency that licenses plumbers & check that he has a plumbing contractors license

Also pay everything with a credit card, this way you have the opportunity to dispute the charge

And finally is Ken Keefe a plumber or a handyman

Use real tradesmen for plumbing, electrical & HVAC

Licensed can mean many things, business license, plumber, which one. Always ask and understand handyman may not be so handy.

Another good resource is this website. It can be used to verify the existence of a contractors license, or lack thereof. Keep in mind certain occupations do not necessarily require licensing.

Call Seniorsvs Crime
 
It is good to report this to them as they keep track by Company etc and if someone is planning to use this guy and call Seniors vs
Crime they will provide some background on him. You can call on 352-750-1914 in Brownwood. Their office is located right next
to the Theater in the Sheriff's annex. Before using any contractor or service everyone should call this number and see if they have had any bad experiences reported to them. :pepper2:

svcSumter - Seniors Vs Crime

Web-site link to local Seniors Vs. Crime.

Project Offices - Seniors Vs Crime

I still think that the local libraries-- Lake, Marion and Sumter should have links to these kind of resources as well as to those of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). NAMI: National Alliance on Mental Illness | NAMI: The National Alliance on Mental Illness

Victim Services Directory

Part of my 224 613 Project (which is international in scope) and on which I have been working in some form or another since January 1991. Google Taltarzac725.
