New Gas Boiler
Options

Hi All,
I am in need of a new boiler as the old one has seen better days and is slowly giving up the ghost. I have done a little research in my local outer London area and would welcome views on this quote.
We are switching to a combi from a standard boiler/tank setup with the following works required.
- Removal of old boiler
- Removal of two old water tanks
- Vaillant EcoTechPro28
- Flue, timers and fittings
- Installation of new boiler
- Testing of new boiler
The quote I have is for £1900. British Gas seem to want to do the same job for almost three times this figure! No shock there.
What do people think? Thanks in advance.

FWIW, it seems like a fair price.0 -
Agree with Baldplumber, there are loads of responses on here that cover this, but this does look like a good price and vaillant are a very good and reliable boiler.
Try and get at least 3 quotes from different RGI's first so you can compare what your getting for your money.0
