Default Replacing conventional boiler with combi condensed boiler


wrote in message
oups.com...
My plumber quoted £2,500 incl VAT (parts and labour) to replace my
conventional boiler with a 28KWATTS Worcester Combi Condensed boiler.
The boiler costs about £750-800 incl VAT. Is the labour cost too
expensive?

We just paid £2.600 to have same boiler Worcester Greenstar 28 installed,
with 5 replacement radiators, (we had two newish ones already) a new
stopcock, so I would have thought just to have boiler installed was a bit
pricey. Have you tried a few more quotes? He also removed old cylinder in
bedroom, and cut off old lead pipes etc, he also capped a gas fire in lounge
for us too. He was 4 days doing the job, with himself and another chap. We
are in the north west of the UK. Perhaps that makes a difference to pricing.
