BALL PARK FIGURE (SOUTHERNERS NEED NOT REPLY )

[SWOLLENGLAND]

Hi ,joking apart this is a question for northern plumbers ,none of those fancy London rates
How much will it cost ,ball park to have a standard boiler changed to a condensor one (18kw) both labour only and labour and materials .

Its located in a garage so no real access problems ,but are there any hidden pit falls that doing this has ,i.e upgrading of gas supplies etc .Also heard a rumour that grants were available for having this kind of change over ,is that the case?

Stands back and waits for tirade of abuse from anyone south of Watford gap

Depending on system upgrades required, Including powerflush etc £2-2.5K

ball park is the worst phrase in the world, i would go anywhere between £300 ( labour only, you supply EVERYTHING, plus pay me extra for waiting time while you go and gets some of the stuff you forgot to get)for a swapover in the same position assuming it is allowed, to £3000 (supply and fit a boiler incl material) which is no use to you at all, a quote depends on too many things gas pipe size, state of rads & pipe allowing a conection to be made without flooding everywhere, condensate drain access state of electrics etc etc, you need to get someone to look and quote properly

Condenser? I thought people north of watford used coal fired stoves (dried dung in the summer months)?

DRIED DUNG WE USED TO DREAM ABOUT DRIED DUNG .Keep laughing and keep paying by the way.

The ball park figure was to give a lad at work who is getting some quotes a rough idea of what he should be paying ,thanks for those that answered ,even those that gave the traditional "tradesmans" replies .
