Boiler fitting costs
Discussion
Alright chaps,
My boiler is borked so I need a new one. British Gas have given me a quote of £3k - it's easy enough to check the costs for the boiler on-line - but fitting is £1200 and I cannot get anyone round to give me a comparative quote as now its got cold all the heating engineers are busy.
I have no idea whether this is reasonable or not. The house is one we rent out so we need to deal with it quickly as my tennants are cold. Its a 3 bed semi if that makes any difference.
Any guidance would be great
Thanks
