    In retrospect

    Just for your info, what happens if the ECV is letting by!, just turning off won't stop gas coming through the open pipe, therefore it's a job for an RGI to check and cap meter or pipe

Time after time you come on here asking professional plumbers for advice even though you have got our backs up from previous comments about how we are all rip off merchants.

    A bit steep?

    A simple job does not neccasarily equate to a quick job, assuming he had to drain down your system, refill, bleed all the rads, etc, etc £300 is not excessive, why he changed the other valve is a different matter If you could change both yourself in an hour, it beggars the question of why...

    WC flush systems

    But he's been such a hero sorting out this toilet, which was obviously very complicated as it was beyond a time served plumber. I have a vision that he turned up wearing a cape and his underpants on the outside of his trousers
