Dear All

I have a combi boiler and have had it for 2 years, i need to get it serviced but British gas want £80. Is this correct or are there any tips to get this cheaper?

Thanks

    £80 sounds pretty fair to me...Who do you think will give the better aftercare/guarantee?

    Good morning: £80 for an annual service on a 2 year old combi is steep, even by London standards. Whoever you do get in, make sure he/she follows the annual servicing procedure detailed in the boiler manual and completes the Benchmark...more here. Find a Gas Safe RGI for the service.
