Last week had a plumber tell me I needed a new hot water heater for about $2K ... 2nd opinion plumber can make a repair to it for $200... going with the 2nd guy. Glad you didn't get scammed. carol funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602159377334420359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8458995441204559691.post-58057365114757620102017-04-05T16:18:52.335-06:002017-04-05T16:18:52.335-06:00Ask the second mechanic to show you what he looked...Ask the second mechanic to show you what he looked at, some of this stuff is not hard once you know what's happening.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05450082315014407506noreply@blogger.com
