Thanks to John Moore for their free estimates ... but good thing I looked further. My mom's yard was flooded with water and JM gave me a $6000+ estimate to replace the entire 52 feet of water line from the meter to the house saying that it was not PVC pipe and could not be simply repaired. After they left, I dug up the pipe at the meter and at the house and found that the line was indeed PVC. I asked them to rebid the job based on the new information, but did not hear from them. I called another plumber that replaced 2 PVC breaks in the line for $306 which saved Mom about $5,450. I will call them again in the future ... but you can believe that I am more thorough than most and don't believe estimators that make big mistakes.
