    Nearly £3k for a boiler doesn't help, I wouldn't be keeping the microbore pipework either, it will be sludged up & is difficult to flush
    I'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.

    You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.
  • Boiler, filter, controller, 15 radiators and valves and modifications to pipework. I'm interested, what do you think is missing from the "whole new heating" that you would be prepared to pay that price for?

    Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

    As said there is alot of materials going in there, also what area of the country are you in as that plays a big part.
