Labour cost for new central heating?

[sammathias]

Just a quick one, basically just wondering what everyones charging to fit a new central heating system and weather i am undercharging....

Take out bbu,fire,cylinder,tanks in attic all rads and pipework.
Install combi on outside wall
upgrade 14m of gas pipework
new 8 rad central heating system
replace hot pipework approx 20m.

Just a quick rough estimate would be great!
i live in south wales so probably abit cheaper than england.

I probably wouldn't go as high as 6. But depends on all the factors really.

Was in Pembrokeshire the beginning of the school holidays. Went to a camp site in Saundersfoot and took the kids Pembroke castle. Great day out. I know it has nothing to do with the conversation but just thought I would say.

With materials and I can if you pay me enough run round in a cape if that floats your boat

I would sit happily on a stool in red tights and a cape to see you do that lot in a week , do you work 24 hours a day ?

There are people doing them in 3 days wam bam all push fit, it's not a big system 7am-5pm (10 hours) so that's 60 hours to install and commission a new system

In a empty house its easier , but if theres carpets to pull up furniture to move etc etc , a week !! No chance
