    Subcontractor rates

    I don't see myself as manual labour because putting anybody in front of a boiler is illegal. Unless I decide to go back to manual labouring, I need to find work and sometimes might have to take a cut just to survive

    all subcontractors rates cut 5% !!!

    I see this is an old post, but still thought it might be worth reaching out. I Like to think I’m good at what I do, but some of the rates I’m been offered by national companies like domestic and general, Axa etc feel low. I know it comes with the promise of volume but still until that comes its...

    New boiler dropping pressure after heating has gone off

    If your contractor is on the wa If your installer is on the wai list, the Worcester would be interested. Unfortunately , it is a well known issue that old pipe work that moves to a pressurised system can amplify leaks and pin holes in pipe work. That's not the installers fault or poor...

    Boiler Noise driving me nuts

    Partly because I'm interested in the technology, and then there is no easier time to sell one then when I fit a new boiler. Also it gives me a bit more margin. You can do the same if you join the smart installer club

    whats the future hold for smart stats

    For all that smart thermostats are said to be, they are just a remote switch. There are so many promises of what they can do, but if they don’t read the fault codes on the boiler, predict faults, suggest energy savings etc what’s the point. But all of this can be done via a connected boiler...

    Boiler Noise driving me nuts

    Hi I’ve been meaning to update you all for a while. The boiler was a KD Navien. The issue was the Honeywell straight auto bypass valve. I’ve now removed this, and the system is now perfect.

    boiler installation

    Thanks everyone. Did some reading up last night £10k is reasonable I agree. There is also 12% of all turnover to add to this, and then there dosnt appear to be more moaney to pay, although I have not seen the contract. The 150k jobs are repair jobs, and for the 10k you don’t get these. The...

    boiler installation

    Yes, that’s right. Its £10k for 5 years and then I get another 5 years free. So in total its 10 years They market their brand, and the customers that go to them that are in my area, are sent to me. My business is virtually ex-directory. I work with insurance businesses, and some council work...
