After some cost guidance, not something I've really bothered with before.
I took a 3P motor to be looked at as it was leaking oil from the gearbox and the guy has quoted me £295+Vat for new bearings, a new seal and a rewind.
I don't have the specs of the motor to hand, I thought I'd taken a photo of the rating plate before I took it in but it seems I didn't.
How reasonable does this sound? A new motor+gearbox is circa £1200 so it's definitely cheaper than replacing, but if this guy is a rip off, I will look elsewhere.
What do you guys that get motors rewound usually pay?
