Report
Called welch brother to fix a leaking steam radiator and they sent a guy over and within a minute he said he cannot fix it. I was charged a total of $87 dollars just for him to show according to their business model (he was there for less than 10 minutes). I would advise anyone to search around before calling these guys. Personally, I don't recommend Welch Brothers to anyone. Lesson learned.
