Definitely find some place else to have it done. It's not rocket science, but you will need techstream or a good scan tool to perform the master cylinder bleeding process.
The noise you hear is the master cylinder pumping brake fluid continuously (makes bleeding these brakes easy, just hold the pedal down). It probably has an internal leak and is something you should fix for sure. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't set a CEL/VSC error.
