Dear [Recipient Name] :
I received your bill, dated [date] , for service work performed on [date] , at my house, located at the address above.
The total on the bill indicates that I owe $[amount] . Your verbal estimate was $[amount] , and I understood that this included the costs for labor and materials. No other work was done, so I fail to see why the amount charged so greatly exceeds the estimate.
Before I pay this bill, I must request that you send me an itemized list of the charges that clearly shows how you arrived at the total.
Sincerely,
User
