the white cable is what he arrived with + the red bits that he said were hard to find

that is wrong what the guy has said because the air is being taken from the room as opposed to through the flue , just check there is no velcro on the wall

I got 2 other quotes cheaper than his and to be honest i had over half a dozen guys round to give me quotes but onlu 3 got back in writing with a quote. I beleive this guy is just brand new and he's finding it harder than he thought it would be. I wasnt trying to be cheap in hiring this guy but money was an issue as we hadn't budgeted for it.

The boiler is from a brand new range by Glow Worm called Ultracom 2 that was introduced July 1st this year.
I am puzzled by the cover missing as it acts as a seal. There is no inner fire door. Where is the front cover? The wiring is dangerous if left like the picture. Has a roomstat been fitted. (And connected to the boiler).
Have you paid him?
Has the system been flushed, has a long term chemical Inhibitor been put in with the C.H. system water?
Have you been given the Installation and servicing manual with the Benchmark pages filled in completely, if you haven't you've no manufacturer's warranty. Which on this boiler is two years parts and labour.
As GrahamM said earlier this installer is an accident waiting happen.
You can always ask Gas Safe register to get one of their inspectors to check the work.
