Fair price for fitting 9 TRV valves?

[paulplumbing]

I have just fitted 9 TRV's for a friend which took 3 hours. He supplied all the valves and also a bottle of inhibitor which i put in the system after.

I dont usually do jobs on my own so im wondering what people would charge themselves roughly? Price includes, draining system, fitting valves, refilling and venting system & adding inhibitor.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Generally supply and fit for £25 (danfoss) so £10 labour+vat

Can't really discuss prices in open but a rough guide for me would be 165.55 + vat ( that's mates rates)

If he IS a friend, he owes you a packet of ****. If he is a fair weather friend £300 should make sure he doesn't ask you again :smile:

Haha exactly tam, the thing is you don't charge your real mates, but your real mates bung you plenty, or it's in the bank as a favour back, it's the winter mates as I call them, who only phone you when something's broken, I have a cousin who phones and says "Awrite cuz how are you doing, how's the boys, how's your mum" I'm like "tony cut to the chase what's broken this time, the heating or the shower" he replies " well now that you mention it" I just tell him I'm chokka and will get there as soon as I can but it might be next week or after, if you need it done before that just pay someone haha

A days labour. So somewhere between 100 to 300 squid.

He's a good friend, but i spoke to him this morning and he told me not to leave myself short. So said £100 and we were both happy

Bung it, or snatch it with a rubble bag under the work area?
