Inflated pricing

Excellent quality of work performed HOWEVER 2 to 3 times priced above market rates for contractors in the industry both in KZN and JHB. A significant issue experienced is a lack of transparency on underlying pricing for work to be performed. The owner Umesh outsources most of his work and doubles / triples the pricing, he also requested additional fees for installing bathroom accessories although he charged c.R15-20k above market pricing available via CTM and other service provider pricing suggesting a form of greed. Please compare this contractors inflated pricing to industry related pricing as you may be paying much more for work performed with limited transparency of the underlying unit pricing.
