The service was snaking a kitchen drain. The cost -- for a visit of 1 hour--was $371.54! Based on my research online, this is well above the highest costs in a range that starts at $90.
When I called for the service, I was told that the visit would cost $79, and tha that fee would be replaced by a standard cost for the needed service, once the service person could assess the problem.
The problem was simple--a clogged drain. The solution was a snake in the drain. The cost was a total rip-off.
The public should know about this, and I will do my best to broadcast this exorbitant pricing.
