Please could some of the regulars give me an idea of cost before I get quotes for a plumbing job and what I need to consider please.
To replace 5 radiators in existing positions, though it will need some connections/pipework but to use existing pipework and to flush through.
To fit a replacement combi boiler Worcester Junior Greenstar 28i. Will need to make a vent to exterior. And will need to run a new bit of gas pipe.
To fit one towel radiator which I will supply.
To fit one radiator to a room which has none, running pipework.
To fit a new mains stopcock.
To fit radiator valves.
To fit plumbing in kitchen for a temporary sink.
To fit plumbing in bathroom ready to take a suite, including a shower. I think the shower would run off the gas boiler as well.
It is a ground floor flat with wooden floors and no carpets. It is in W. London suburbs. The plumber is to supply everything.
I just want an approximate figure so I'm not wasting time getting quotes. Ta.;)

Many would say "I had that exact job done last year and paid £100. The plumber was very grateful and doffed his cap to me in appreciation."
However, in the real world between £4-£4.5 would be a realistic figure.0 -
I would appreciate any genuine replies.:rolleyes:0

Good morning: If the installation meets Best Practice and Building regs then would agree with EH's estimate...my OH had a P&H business in SW London for many years until we moved out of the Big Smoke;) (now based in Kent) 3 utemized quotes are in order. Visit www.trustcorgi.com to check qualifications or check out www.iphe.org.uk for a heating engineer who is also a qualified plumber.
Excellent info on the installation and specification of gas central heating is available here http://www.energysavingtrust.org.uk/uploads/documents/housingbuildings/ce30.pdf

Has they really? I'm tempted to say 'Good first post!':rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:I am pleased with the plumber in London, they really has a highly reputable plumbers and quality work.After the uprising of the 17th June The Secretary of the Writers Union
Had leaflets distributed in the Stalinallee Stating that the people
Had forfeited the confidence of the government And could win it back only
By redoubled efforts. Would it not be easier In that case for the government
To dissolve the people
And elect another?0
