Just think you need to call someone in who knows what they are doing, this guy is a waste of time !

Does the engineer not deserve the right to put things right?

In this case I don't think so ! he's had time to sort it and the OP is still left with a system that is not working

I would call him and explain that he has 24 hours to get you a fully working system before you call someone else in.(but that’s just me)

That’s the plan!

 

[Murdoch]

I'm very confused ............ Thursday evening the OP asked advice about the pricing of 2 quotes ................ today, Saturday, it would seem that the work has been done and its not working

So I'm guessing the OP went with the "cheap" price!

 

[Oakwood109]

You guessed right

Be confused no more!

Forgive me for asking the obvious - why ask for advice after you have given somebody the go ahead?

I would charge at least £750

 

[Oakwood109]

The bloke became available

My house was cold

I hired him

I now wish I hadn’t

 

[Oakwood109]

Got all rads off apart from downstairs one and it’s blazing hot

Gonna try and introduce the others slowly

 

[Murdoch]

ALWAYS be afraid if a tradesman is instantly available - especially during the winter ................

How will I know if the pump isn’t working properly?

It’s a wilo gold 50

Thanks

 

[ShaunCorbs]

I would change the pump due to its age

Just been reading your past posts, two questions, did you say that it was a Worcester Greenstar boiler? If so what model and have you got a room stat somewhere in the house? Cheers

No idea why, but Wilo Gold 50 pumps (green in colour), I have come across a few that were suddenly only partly working. Usually the top floor or first few rads heating ok.
They appeared to be perfect, so I assume the motor had lost most of its power. Tbh, I can’t remember if I always checked the rotation direction. I just replaced them and heating working.
