I have been quoted for works to install a new heating system in a project we are doing in Kent (one large house and adjoining small house). This is our first project and I am concerned that the quote we have been provided is steep. Whilst I appreciate that it is the plumbers prerogative to quote as he wishes for a job, I wanted to see if anyone else more experienced is able to comment. Quote at the bottom:
Summary of works:
Large house (3 bed): Conversion of the existing system from an open vent to a combi boiler conversion, along with rationalisation and alteration of the heating system. All new radiators, and electrics etc.
Many thanks for any help.
