Shaun, the other person has his own company.
And he’s going to be the one registering it correct so you should have a formal quotation off him etc for warranty

He is self employed mate. So should know what he is getting into.Low quote is obviously tempting even when you know the installer the thing you should be aware of is your guy maybe miscalculated which is easily done he will then either realise and take the loss or ask for more money. If he takes a loss you may well find that he will be reluctant to return if any issues arise later on or he will be reluctant to work for you again as by giving you a blinding deal he will think you expect this next time as well.
If you are satisfied with the way everything had gone I would consider giving the guy extra money on the side to keep him happy and keen, you may well get that money back the next time you are in need of his services.
Agreed.He is self employed mate. So should know what he is getting into.

Not equitable? Because they aren't charging me 800 pound labour for days work.Agreed.
Both parties should also understand that a fairly effective way to finish a friendship is to turn it into a business deal that is not equitable.
Tell us what you really think mate. .After hours boiler replacement, by one full time employed plumber and one self employed plumber ( who can't manage to do the job during business hours )
Cheap price?
Formal written quotation?
Don't expect much!!!!!
And then there's you who comes on here wanting to know if your overpaying.
You quote the price of the boiler and then question the installation price.
Guaranteed, you will get a crap job done, no warranty and no back up service.
Hope this is helpful!
Why would a direct replacement take 2 days,?
mine was done in one day.
All completed, took 8 hours in total, paper work signed and registered by my friends company.Tell us what you really think mate. .
One question to ask is will the registered engineer be on site the whole time? Or just to fill the paperwork out.

Yes it's all working fine, thanks. I'm sure some people do jobs for people cheaper when they know them. Not sure why it caused an uproar. Thanks again though for your views.good and your happy ?
