Unless you run into unavoidable issues. We've had a few that had poblems like broken pin screws, chewed up spider gears, seized ABS sensor bolt, etc. that oviously added a bit of time to the job.

However, if he's having anything that is complicating the job, he should at least have contacted you and let you know what's going on.
