$340 to repair a loose hose clamp

Would removing or loosening this hose be something a shop would do when draining/flushing/refilling the coolant ???
You're not talking into a void friend, I hear ya
Over the phone diagnostics & on the road repairs are things that cause major headaches & wallet hurt sometimes. Sounds like the good Lord & good luck is on her side though!
