Is $1,065 to replace outdoor ac disconnect and install surge protector a fair price?
Project Details
The homeowner's AC was not working because a screw had damaged the wiring to the outdoor disconnect, causing the indoor breaker to trip. The technician charged for a surge protector instead of a standard electrical repair fee to provide additional value for the same price.
