If you know how to change it will range from less than rm1( might be just the rubber gasket inside) or rm10+(change the whole wire.

If u want to call people fix I dunno might be rm100 since I've never called them for minor fix like this

This kind of work too minor, if doing cannot charge much, end up have to waste time for travel & opportunity cost lost. Usually the plumber will not entertain.

If you can repair it on your own, it should be less than RM 10 for the material of the hose. You just need a spanner to remove the old hose & install the new hose.

Lives in double storey terrace house. Maybe just don't like stay home doing nothing. Active church member. smile.gif Fix minor job like this probably just RM50.

I once called him to remove broken metal pipe inside thread with no extruding part to hold. I did not have tool with reverse thread to removed. He did not have the tool either but showed me how to remove without tool. I was afraid to damage but he told me that experience let you know how hard to knock and unwind the broken part laugh.gif He just asked for RM20 if not mistaken.
