Default Re: Plumber rip-off?

id be very happy to pay 225 for that job.

im a carpenter and if i only charged for the time on the tools on the days where i drive around doing 10min jobs id earn 2 hours pay in a day. cant pay the bills on $130 or even fill the ute.

my girlfriend is a lawyer and she is charged out at $400 an hour at 6min sections even if she is only on that task for a 2min phone call. so be glad it wasnt her you needed.

and to the ones saying dont give it a go your self- do it and if it works, sweet you saved your self some money, if not it will cost you the same as if you got someone out in the first place.
