I called out a plumber today to replace our main water shut off valve. It is located outside of the house and in plain sight and with very easy access. The old one is a 3/4" ball valve, and by all appearance the job for a professional shouldn't take more than one hour. Question: Should a "normal" day plumbing job described above cost $265.00 plus the cost of the valve? I refused to hire the plumber, because I thought I figured high thinking the bill would be $75.00. What do You think?
