Is $2,500 to repair boiler components including expansion tank, valves, and system bleeding a fair price?
Project Details
The homeowner initially agreed to a repair quote but declined a $12,000 total replacement recommendation. Upon receiving the final bill, they discovered approximately $848 in additional charges for draining/refilling the system and bleeding radiators that were not included in the original estimate. The homeowner suspects these were retaliatory charges added after they backed out of the full replacement and has initiated a credit card chargeback.
