New boiler quote

Have had a quote for a Baxi 630 with magnetic filter and Hive smart meter for 1900 pounds (pound symbol on computer not working!). Does this seem reasonable? Had a Worcester fitted a couple of years ago for 1600 - both good makes, no Hive with the Worcester. 7 years guarantee and 1 year installation warranty. Thoughts would be appreciated, current boiler has been condemned and no time to get loads of quotes in. Thanks

    As a guide, a quick google of the parts cost -



    Baxi 630 - £850

    Magnaclean - £65

    Water descaler - £10

    Inhibitor - £30
    Hive - £150


    Your probably onto £1150 in parts, then the rest labour.....
