A plumber quoted $7,500 for an emergency hot water replacement at 6pm. The next day, another quote for the job was under $2,500.
That story is a comment on r/AusRenovation, 21 September 2024. It is not a Wazup customer. The film is that night.
The first quote was one number, at the end of the day, for a job that had to get done. The second number was for the same kind of work. The gap was about $5,000.
Paste the quote you were given. Wazup writes the job in plain lines, names what the quote left out, and writes the note for the next shop with the first price taken out. The packet lands on this page and in your inbox. We do not call the shop. We do not invent a fair price.
Read this quote$29 once, for this quote. You are paying for the packet. A lower second quote is not a promise.
"Had a plumber quote me 7.5k for an emergency hot water replacement at 6pm. Got another quote for <2500 the next day."
"Got this quote from a plumber for $935. Nothing was itemised, and a colleague at work just told me they had their oven gas line capped for under $300 only 6 months ago."
"Leak search and refill they want $2600, unit replacement they want $7100. ... I'm trying to understand if we're in the right ball park or should I shop around more."
