Frequently asked questions
Why don’t you publish one flat price?
Because the total depends on your delivery address, dates, unit, service schedule and quantity. Instead we publish real quotes with exactly what each covered—and give you an itemized total before you book.
Is tax included?
Not always—one internal-sink quote was “$292 plus tax.” Ask whether the total you’re given includes tax.
Are there cancellation fees?
Cancel more than 24 hours before scheduled delivery for a full refund; within 24 hours it’s non-refundable. Released payment holds can take a few days to show.
