Red flag
Lack of pricing transparency: refuses to itemize charges and appears to mark up parts significantly (8x+ markup on toilet repair)
“$434 for parts costing less than $50, no itemization provided”
Severe pricing concerns: $434 charged for parts costing under $50 with no itemization provided despite customer request
“$434 for parts costing less than $50, no itemization provided”

“Amazing technical work and customer service ! As a new customer we purchased the Plumbing and HVAC Partner Plan. Our first regular safety inspection was scheduled a week out.
