It sounds like the garage is charging you to change them, not check them.
It is if you arent mechanically minded. Its a bit like an IT expert telling me to fix my own IT system as he thinks its easy!. Ive seen too many messed up home services lately due to people being advised its easy!. Two snapped spark plugs, one cracked sump and 3 stripped sump threads since Feb!!
