The plumber and that truck is at work. If he's not making money, he's losing money.


He doesn't need to go to her house to give a quote on installing a water heater.

He gouged a woman for 80 bucks.

ETA:

You should out the company that charged her 80.00 for the estimate.

If he already knew the heater was bad going in, then no he shouldn't charge her a full hour.
If she called him and asked him to repair the heater and he condemned it, then he charged correctly.

There are a few important things you might want to know.

Size of the WH.
Size-ampacity of the electrical circuit.
Material it is plumbed with.
Size of the attic access if its relevant.

Old work is more expensive than new construction for a reason.
