voi9ler repair price guidance

[NL2013]

Am looking for price guidance for the work as per below scope to fix heating/hot water on a system boiler (was quoted 900 excluding materials that sounds a lot...). Thanks.

-Drain down the central heating system.

- Fit two port zone valves to controlhot water and central heating circuit separately.

- Fit an automatic by-pass valve.

- Some pipework modification in theairing-cupboard related to the above.

- install new setof Honeywell controls including doing all the relative wiring.
-Install a new roomthermostat and a programmer.
- Fix a fused spur on the power in order to make a better conditionin terms of the safety features and ease of use.

I think £900 +materials sounds a lot, would have it done in less than a day.

Also, I was told that apart from other materials the pipe and cable are from the van and hence no invoices will b provided, but the cost quoted is 150 pounds which sounds lot for may max two metres of pipe and 2 m of cable, I don't mind paying fair price but resent being taken advantage of...

Is this the same guy who wanted £900 to sort out the controls when your boiler was locking out on your other thread?

Sorry If I give out prices here it will start WW3
why not register and send me a pm. I could only tell you what I would charge.

Seems steep to me. But maybe he priced it high because he doesn't really want it? For whatever reason..

You could always get another quote. Look for a local engineer on gassafe website
