We've been having some semi-emergency electrical problems. And electrician came out last Monday and performed a maybe temporary repair. He said it could last a month, year, five years, anything's possible. It lasted five days - until Friday. Then started up again. And it's definitely a borderline emergency issue. We also got a quote for what's suppose to be a final repair. About $2,000+ repair. Today I get a bill - $75 for the part and $150 for the service call/labor. I'm kinda miffed because nothing was fixed. It was basically like a bandaid on the issue. We plan on hiring them to do the extensive work. Anyone know of I can negotiate the current bill? Get a credit towards future work or a refund of the part since it didn't help. Has anyone tried negotiating with a contractor? Can you?
