    Default Applewood plumbing and heating

    So I called applewood plumbing and heating out today to quote how much it would be to relocate my ac unit by 15 feet in a straight line, not around corners or anything. The tech told me it would be really easy and only take about 2 hours. He goes back to his truck to write the quote and comes back a few minutes later to tell me it would be 1700.00 plus the cost of the electrical work! Wow not that hard, only takes 2 hours but would cost 1700 bucks? Maybe I'm out of line but $850 an hour is a little ridiculous.

    Get other quotes to see if it is what the market says its worth. It might be inline with the market.

    That's applewood. Probably not $850 an hour. Probably going to use new refrigerant some electrical and copper supplies silver solder etc etc.

    Not defending them by anymeans.

    I had them out for a quote once to run an outlet to the garage. Was quoted $1100 so I politely told them no thanks. My father-in-law helped us do it and it only took a little over an hour and less than $100 in materials. I will never be calling applewood for anything again and from what others have said online, it seems that astronomical prices are the norm with them. Oh well, they are free to charge what they want but I'm sure as hell not paying their prices.
