This was a great "wake up call" to be more alert as to what can happen if you are not careful and what is possible in charges without an estimate. The $100 was well worth it to warn us how some will unreasonably charge customers. What I will never understand is why some do that as of course we will never us that contractor again and will tell our friends of the experience It is mortgaging their future for a few dollars today.

Your post should be reread three times by everyone and taken to heart by all.
You are so right and I like your saying;
"Mortgaging their future for a few dollars today".
