Just finished this off on Friday.

Looks great, roughly how much did the job cost the customer do you know? The whole job.

 

[EvilDrPorkChop]

Labour and supplying stuff and materials (Excluding Tiles, customer supplied) £9k inc VAT. Although really should have been a bit more, was quoted at our old labour prices.

Although there was very little electrical works on this one, plus everything basically stopped in the same place.

Floor was a mess underneath so was another £250 on top of above for redoing floor too.

Yes and out of necessity (bloody kitchen fitters was before the flexi probe came out) they keep getting flagged by Kane but keep passing

 

[SimonG]

Can you come and check the plumbing in one of the toilets?

Better check the public liability insurance!!

Wasn't a easy install and definitely a pita to service but their bills are lower and weather compensation has worked well the customer is tec savy so no worries with the app . Kop

Can’t decide which boiler you like???

 

[EvilDrPorkChop]

Can’t decide which boiler you like???

Use Main as our budget boiler - cracking for money.
Vaillant is our go to ‘Premium’ brand. The Worcester one I’d offered them two options Worcester and Vaillant. Worked in my favour for as could run pipes down back.

The Pro is a solid boiler though. Be sad to see it go when it does. Vaillant are just a bit behind with their modulation etc. as new model has been delayed.

Even though I don’t know what I’m doing from one week to the next, it‘s still all similar and mundane. Gas safety checks, occasional boiler fault, and installing some thermostats. Friday was most exciting day when I got to change some wiring going into a programmer, that I think was just being used as a junction box.

 

[SimonG]

Home for next 4 days, couple little bits for friday, postpone bowes from monday and salou on Tuesday for a week.
