Replaced only the master bathroom tap/valve for my shower. I already cut out the drywall and opened up the area so the plumber could get straight to work. The plumber showed up without the tap, then had to gom to Lowes because he didn't have the 1/2" copper fittings in his truck. When he came back from Lowes he relaized he didn't have butane for his torch as asked me if I had any. He went back to Lowes for butane.
The job took 3 hours in labour and the plumber said it was around 300$ in parts. I was charged 2050$. The invoice shows nothing other than replace bathroom shower valve, an environmental fee and GST. When I phoned in to question their invoice as ask for a basic breakdown in parts and labour they refuse to answer.
-They will not tell you their hourly rate they use for estimates/billing
-They will not tell you how much was spent on parts.
They tell you nothing. I have no idea how this tap cost 2050$ to this day....after Clearview came in another plumber came in to replace my hot Water tank and quoted 1500$ for the tank/labour. he looked at my tap and laughed....said it was an 850$ job.
Clearview is completely unresponsive and has a long track record. Don't believe their google reviews, look to more reputable review sites such as Homestars and the BBB for a more acurate picture.
Please see the pictures of my 2050$ shower tap.....it speaks for itself
