SERVICE RATES & ESTIMATED LABOR CHARGES

Service rates are as follows:

$45.00 service call and then $90.00 per hour after that billed in 30 min. incriments plus the cost of parts and/or equipment.

Example a 1 hour call for a sewer stoppage would be:
$45 for the initial show up charge + $90 for the hour of time on the job. Total $135.00 plus machine and/or parts charge

There is no overtime charges monday thru saturday.We charge an additional $30 for the drive time involved but then the regular charges apply

Example the same 1 hour sewer stoppage call:
$30 for drive time + $45 service call + $90 for the time on job. Total $160 plus machine and/or material charge

We are always overtime on sundays overtime rates are $135 for the first 30 min. and then $135 per hour after that plus material and/or equipment charges.

Absolute Plumbing is always closed for business on Thanksgiving, Christmas eve and day, and easter so that our employees may share these holidays un-interupted with their families.
