I've spoken to them about the MainsLinkRF, but they don't know how to use it, and won't install it.

Fook me trade really has gone to the dogs

Yeah, but happy to install a second isolation point at completely different ends to the room than the first. Not entirely happy with having to isolate something at multiple locations (that and ugly sockets everywhere), even if I do just switch things off at the fusebox.

Would someone mind advising what an approx hourly rate would be for a heating engineer in the Midlands area please? I need to invoice Permission for the install, but I'm going to do it myself so could do with an estimate of how much it would have cost (without the hassle of ringing around).

a businesses charge takes in to account ALL overheads, so my charge is £65 for a straight forward nest install, £32.50 of that is what would be my wages the rest covering overheads ect, so as a diyer with no overheads i would expect maybe you could charge them around £30 to cover your time installing plus some money for any sundries and materials.

Thanks @dean7445

I'm going to get the MainsLink ordered, and go from there. Looks like the cheapest is £118.80 after VAT (http://www.rfsolutions.co.uk/acatalog/info_MAINSLINK.html).

On a side note, our hot water seems to have stopped working (CH is working ok). Great!
