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.


Yeah I think this is reasonable

I sure as hell don't need a plumber to come to my house and take an hour to tell me my water heater is broke, when I have been taking cold showers though

When I first started ding appliance repair I gave free estimates, but realized some were using me to diagnose, then go DIY.
For me the diagnostic is the hardest part.


There have been times when it's something stupid like a breaker or a bad outlet and I'll usually waive the fee, or just ask for a 1/3 depends on if I did anything($20).
