Now you've got at least one fairly comprehensive quote. Get some more
and eventually you will have the market price for somebody doing the
job for you. The EDF one doesn't seem bad considering the non-combi
scope. Bechmark it against BG and an independent. You may be able to
find cheaper. Only you can decide the value of going with a big name.

( I assume its you that has omitted the TRVs)

Yes, sorry.

To suppply and fit Belmont Terrier thermo controlled radiator valves on
all radiators excluding are where new wireless room thermostat is fitted.

I have just found another quote - £3600 - for basically the same thing
(but to include power-flushing). Interestingly, they include the
"option" of going with a combi boiler - that's only £300 cheaper at £3300
