Balancing radiators etc
Options

Been quoted £1000 in London to have 11 radiators balanced.
As part of the work, they will drain the system a couple times and replace any broken TRV, I know at least 5/6 are broken, maybe more.
The quote is just for labour and I understand it might take 2 plumbers up to 2 days.
ITQF?

Sounds on the high side to me. I'd say two days for ONE plumber would be more than ample time.
What are the symptoms? A system with TRVs is generally said to be 'self balancing' anyway.
