We have called the company as it was recommended by our friend. The first guy that came-in to the inspection/assessment , Mike, appeared to be knowledge and polite. He explained everything that need to be done with our broken unit and give approximate replacement cost (~$4,600 + tax); however, highlighted that the price could be slightly higher ($200-$300) due to materials availability. So, we have verbally agreed to proceed with the replacement and asked Mike to order parts. He said that it may take 2-3 weeks. We said ok. In a week we received an invoice for $6,100+tax due (immediately) in order to secure the job. So, I have called the number on the invoice and inquired about the BIG change in price and my conversation with Anthony (I guess Mike's boss) less pleasant... I was told that it was a quoted job, he through some technical names I was not familiar with saying that it's needed to complete the project.... In the essence TAKE IT OR LEVE IT. So, I talk to my wife and we decided to withdraw. So we got another bill for $180 (truck fee and assessment) + $200 for re-stocking the item. Wow. All in all it was not a pleasant experience. We were threatened with collection agency etc. NOT RECOMMENDED at all. And I waited a year to post this so they don't harass me.
