He came to my house last week, he had to replace a pipe near the dishwasher and connect my kitchen sink. I knew that it was going to be pricey but wow! Is this the norm?

Depends on what exactly he is doing. I still think it's high.

Does sound high, that's why I thought maybe it was done on a Sunday.

That is about right. My husband is a licensed plumber. He charged you for the job probably, not by the hour. A good plumber is pricey.
