No not all. But yes the most probable. I pay the mechanic or the plumber, etc. not only for their skill but for their professional knowledge as well. The sharing of professional knowledge is what leads to long term relationships. I have very long term relationships with my mechanic, plumber etc. and I never shop price because the people I deal with offer me an abundance of information upfront and have earned my trust over the years and I have earned their respect as a quality customer. Had my plumber been in the same situation I believe he would have spelled out the various outcomes more clearly. At the very least I believe had nothing been said upfront that at the point the water was not working he would have explained me the situation, and that it is not common, charged me the hourly rate to that point and offered me a flat rate to complete the job.
In all the years you have taken your car to be repaired has the mechanic explained to you all the problems that could possibly occur during the repair...I think not.
