Don't waste your money. When it breaks down they will claim un economic to repair. So u will have been paying £25 PCM for.... A sticker on your boiler. Save the money and pay a real engineer to fix it.

One customer had a policy. His boiler broke down. This is what they quoted to replace like for

Fitted very same boiler with 8 years parts and labour for a lowly £2670


I'll bear that in mind, thank you.
 
This is what'l probably happen if they do take it on.

You'll pay every month until it breaks down, maybe in a year or two.

Chances are that most of the parts are obsolete, so when they come to fix it, they'll say they can't get parts any more so can't fix it. Which means you've just paid all them payments for nothing.

I'd save the money yourself and get someone to look at it, if it does go down, or replace.

£9000 is definitely on the high side, maybe you should get some more quotes.
 
They probably won't take it on. Most of them have an age limit. Even if they do it will be on a limited scale ie they won't cover certain bits.

Without knowing what's been quoted for and looking at the job it is hard to say if £9000 is expensive or not. How big is your house?

As has been said get another few quotes in then you will get an idea. Post up on the I'm looking for a plumber / gas engineer section and someone on here might be able to help.
