I will occasionally do things like this as well. I figure the good press will do me better than a twenty dollar bill will sometimes. I pulled in a car the other day, with a an exhaust leak, they were expecting to pay 3-4 hundred bucks to replace everything, was just a loose bolt. Tightened it up and sent them on their way, n/c. Keeps a good customer happy, maybe make a new one .

Listen if you are really worried that he messed something up... Soak it with a hose and look for leaks...

I had a Cole muffler shop put in a new U-bolt, no charge. Yep, when I was in the area, I used them and suggested people go there.

I'm with you brother. Wife and I moved out here from Boston. These people are spooky. Always doing nice stuff for you, smiling.....WTF are they up to anyway?

This suspicious roofer isn't the only weird thing that's happened to us here. No-one has flipped me off in 3 years. When my wife broke the van, a guy ran over with a fire extinguisher. My neighbors invite us over for dinner. What's their angle, we don't know. It is scary here.

They must be part of a conspiracy, those nice people...;)
