You are friggin insane.....I was extremely happy but the kid did alot of work and great work at that so we wrote him a check for $300 bucks! So where the original cleanout was gonna cost $225 all that work and a virtually new furnace cost us $400!!!! Sweet! Alot of aggravation though!
That's awsome. Should have given him a smack on the head those as you handed him the 300. Might have been a nice opportunity for a chat about tardiness. Glad it all worked out. Merry Christmas
