Default De-winterizing

How many of you provide this service, through a plumber and what do you charge. Including re-winterizing.

I have a licensed plumber who will do it for me but he is not sure what to charge. for discussion purposes lets say it's a 2000 square foot home with 2 baths.

Thanks Doug,
But I was looking for someone who does this not all the reasons why you shouldn't.
I have a licensed plumber who is going to work directly for my client, I am out of the loop completely. My client doesn't know anyone in the area and the bank says if you want it inspected you de-winterize it and re-winterize it after the inspection in case the deal falls through.
Since this is an $800.00 inspection for me and I have the licensed plumber who will do everything I thought I would help my client. I see no liability concerns for me.

Now for those who do this, is $200.00 about right??

Default Re: De-winterizing

in my area winterization runs $200-$300. De-wint run about $150-$250. In winter don't forget that once de-wint it must be re-wint after the inspection. Usually both done for $50 less because they are already there.

I used to do them but quit becuase of liability. But that wasn't your question, so I wanted to answer the question.

Thanks Greg, I appreciate your reply.
I thought I was in the ballpark and my plumber is doing it for $200.
