Servicing unvented cylinders

[baldyb220]

Hi all just wondering what people are charging these days to service unvented cylinders? May have one to do for a management company of retirement apartments so want to give them a price? Cheers

Hello baldy,
I think a lot of engineers are charging hourly rates but maybe someone will give a better answer which is more in detail

dont have a price for servicing them so would probably just charge hourly rate plus any parts req. (as steated in previous post)

I do a few , but because they are done every year , its very rare theres any problems so they arent to bad to price, if they are local ish to me £45, if I have a lot of travelling to do it goes up accordingly

£45 if close and been before. From £60 for a new cust plus anything more than a 15 min drive.

That's a good saying... I often think in this crazy plumbing game that some jobs due to technical nature etc or whatever that by just charging for the 1st hour is kind of undercharging myself, but charging more I feel customers will think I'm ripping them off because I was able to do this work quickly etc..!? Other people must have this a lot too?
