Hi All
I am not a plumber or heating engineer, I'm just after your advice or opinions.
I told a gas safe plumber, my heating wasn't working, its micro bore and hasn't been right for ages and he explained a power flush would sort it out, he turned up at lunch time spent 3 1/2 hours taking a radiator off and putting his machine in its place and left it running while he fumbled about with the other rads etc, only to proclaim that it hadn't worked and I should now pay him over £500 for the privelidge, oh and he also had to purchase a litre of fluid to do it with that apparently is enormously expensive.
Is it normal to expect to be paid for this level of service? and why is it so expensive?. I haven't had the invoice yet, he wanted cash after he'd finished but I didn't have cash, so he is going to invoice me next week.
Any advice or oppinions would be appreciated. If its the normal practice I don't mind paying but I can't help feeling ripped off.
