Hi,

I have been quoted for the above boiler installed to my existing Rad's along with a power flush and a wireless thermostat for £1300. Based in West Yorks.

Have also been told the 7 year warranty has been stopped from the 31/12/12 but would honour this if installed in January?

Any help would be great re the boiler/price/warranty.


I am a complete novice!
 
Bite his arm off at the elbow! Sounds too cheap to me. Have you had other quotes?
 
Id suggest you ask family friend etc who may of used another firm to recommend someone to you , defo get other quotes
 
I got other quotes for a similar boiler at £1500?

As long as hes GasSafe? I get the paperwork filled out to say hes powerflushed? Then register it online for my 7 year warranty?

Am I safe if I tick the above boxes?
 
House is 2 bed with Electric shower, 7 Rads, think 24 will suffice?
 
Nothing wrong with choice of boiler it's our preferred boiler at the moment , its the price that's worrying but if your happy its your choice and most importantly your money
 
Found him, well he contacted me from "Rated People" and he has 4 ratings all of which are 5 stars? Comments are worrying me.........
 
Make sure he is gsr and that he actually does flush the rads there's a good 3/4 of a day minimum to flush and that's been kind!
 
GSR as in Gas Safe Registered? He has mentioned the System Flush will take 1/2 a day?
 
An old saying in life , pay cheap pay twice . There are exceptions he may be new have no work on etc
 
Bur surely if he fits it correctly? It's the boilers job to run correctly?
 
Yes gsr gas safe registered you can check a engineer or business on the gas safe web site
 
What questions do you recomend me asking the fitter before agreeing?
 
The quote is very cheap,if they are Gas Safe, have public liability insurance and some references I am amazed that with this pricing strategy they are still in business. One or more elements may not be in place and so I would seek other quotes as a fall back if nothing else.
 
I think it's cheap too, also in west yorks. 24kw is too small for owt other than the kitchen sink and a basin really. That price won't include a filter either, which is recommended. Sounds like a bodger really.
 
Haha 1100 quid! I'll have 2! Remember, if it seems too good to be true it usually is.
 
I have TRV's, when I got the meter moved, the pipe was changed to 22mm.

No one has actually told me what the quote should be? Just is too cheap?

What you have told us is what boiler you have now?

If that is supposed to read what i have now..... It is a vokera excell? 15 years old or something? It's a non-condensing boiler..

Hope that makes sense?

if straight forward and condensate can be terminated nearby, with a proper flush, R/F stat if needed £1550 to £ 1650....why not ask TB services? For a quote on here, he fits the ideals and is in West Yorks ditto for BOD, above price is a guide, no job can be quoted unseen.

where are you in WY?
 
No need to worry about the 7 year warranty Ideal have extended it into 2013.
 
suppose it depends on what work hes got on. sometimes owt better than nowt when mouths have to be fed. also if hes using rated people it could be that he uses that to fill in days when he's quiet.

but it is rather cheap i would quote around 1550 but i would also match that quote if i was matching like for like but then it would have to be done at my convienience not the the customers.

but then again everyman/woman has their price

Nice one pal.....EBay boiler installs are same as Helplink start low to get their foot in the door and the boiler off the wall, then come the extra's.......which 99% pay as their old boiler is on the floor! If they can't afford extras at this point, out comes mr silly APR % over x,y,z years..
 
i would bite both arms off by the elbow at that price. But then i would stop and think why so cheap? Not always the best option going down the cheap route in my opinion. Often see this and people end up paying out more on repairs etc . If that is what your budget allows for though then you have no choice. Amazes me to this day some of the prices that i see flying around for a complete boiler installation with power flushes.

I agree but advertising a flush and actually doing one correctly are 2 very different things... ( read if at all)
 
Sounds a good deal - perhaps he's quiet, and so would rather cut his prices to the bone rather than sit on his backside all day. Which doesn't mean his workmanship is poor. To cover yourself on price you could ask for a written quote before he starts the job, and make sure you get the commissioning card fill out properly before paying him. Pay by credit card if possible - which gives you more consumer rights to fall back on if things do go wrong.

Check him out as much as you can, and ask him if he is willing to let you check his work with a past customer.

P.S.

Would suggest spending a little extra to have a filter fitted - reasons explained here...

The Engineer did say as I was getting the boiler fitted he would do the powerflush cheaper? At a price of £150?

All in all, I think if I get the quote on paper and he completes everything he says he will, it's a no brainer?

I will get other quotes as I now know the 7 year warranty has been extended so just for piece of mind, I will get a few around!

Anyone on here want to Quote in Huddersfield?

i would but reading your posts think you've made your mind up already so would be a waste of all our time. I hope it all goes well for you though.
 
Bod is your man in Huddersfield. I could quote too but I'm not in a position to start any time soon, actually have some jobs in Huddersfield due in January.

Don't forget the filter, it will be a good investment ... and shouldn't cost much to fit if done with the boiler install.
