    Had a quote - got a query on parts

    Cannot service boiler without safety rail around loft hatch.

    You need to make sure the installer is aware that you intend to keep the scrap before they quote as they may have factored the scrap value in their quote. Also be prepared to lug it down the stairs yourself. Generally customers that weigh in the scrap themselves are not considered...
