    where are you based? these seem VERY expensive. I'm in Birmingham.

    I've had quotes for replacing my old floor standing boiler with both a combi and a conventional. including getting rid of a rad and putting in 4 new rads all around £2,750. included power flush etc. Plus all new gas pipes etc

    First guy just left, said he would check thru the parts list I put together and put together a price for installation and installation+supply.

    Quite happy to go abuse plumbcentre with my CC :p
    He did say initially labour would be 1000-1200 which tbh seems far closer tot he number I had in my head for 3/4 days work.

    Thats for pretty much entire new heating system installed including all the radiator repositioning also.

    Next guys isn't coming til tue/wed :(
