A Customer had called me this morning,He has a failed dimmer so he said ,#1 problem is the fridge has to be moved to access the switch,he has disco all the wires for Kitchen light and out side light.
He Attempted to install another dimmer and breaker would trip and also outside was slow to come on and would be dim. He also lives 45 minutes away from my shop. I quoted over the phone that he would be looking at a minimum of 200.00 for the repairs and he couldn't believe that it would cost that much to "change" a switch.
I do not feel that this was overcharging as 1 would have been at least 2.5 hours doing the job. I also think that there must have been some diy kitchen Reno's because of the location of the switch. He is now price shopping at the moment.
