Boiler is dependant on many things in the system design, controls, condense waste, flue termination, wiring back at the boiler, gas pipe size. Very hard to give a solid figure but work on 2k and this will give you a very good budget with a top A rated boiler. Location is also a factor as labour...

indeed I would budget for that to be replaced as 15/16 years is good for a boiler now.

Go round when the noise starts and turn the valves off. Maybe a loose jumper in the valve.

pump? I presume you mean the central heating pump. If so then yes. Re the tank yes I would be looking to charge that. Telford are fine.

tbh the price difference between 150ltr and 170 is minimal. Yes qualification is common and honestly check before you employ someone to do this as consequences are huge if installed incorrect. £800 ish.+ vat

The price of materials is always increasing. Take a linear meter cost of timber is just gone up again so what was budgeted say 6 months ago material costs will have increased hence why companies say quote valid for say 6 weeks.

With the taps turned off you can as the spout won’t have water in it.

If it worked before and deffo runs off the pump then could well be air? where in relation to the pump are the taps that are not working? did you replace the pump like for like? Ie; universal pump with a universal or positive head with positive head?

Ok the red vessel is for the heating system and is an expansion vessel. Personally I would never advise customers to swap over to a Combi unless space is premium and you know the pros and cons. To fit the tank you need to have the correct qualification for unvented cylinders. size wise is...

It’s basically an ‘O’ ring leaking but good luck finding one to fit.

V Just seen your edited post above re the 100mm celotex inbetween and 50 over the top. This is what i was thinking but with the superquilt was thinking it would be time saving.

What is the system it is running? Rads how many? Zones? Age? There are many factors

it’s accessible via an existing staircase built when the house was built. It’s a large room which I’m possibly looking to convert into 2 bedrooms, hence why I want to get the best insulation properties I can but just trying to think of the best way around this. Hence the original superquilt and...

building regs not involved just trying to insulate as much as possible in the best way, cost being a factor but not causing issues elsewhere.

Deffo like the above has said, I would be interested to see the configuration on the cold feed and vent.

This really depends on the system it is fitted too.

Combi? System boiler? Open vented? Like the above details are a little vague? Whilst keeping the old boiler maybe an option in the long run it my easier to swap out now and even reposition?

We had this on a job and was told the plaster was at fault and possibly out of date. Zinsser primer as above maybe the only option.

Has you sorted this buddy?

I have to say IMO when pricing job if its a skilled trade doing 1 task then a price is better than day rate if its someone that may be doing several different tasks then day rate is better. Ive seen all trades when on day rate drag there heels yet you give the same trades price work they...
