Self employed trades people charge what ever they can to make a living,
as a fully trained plumber/heating installer and commercial gas engineer I now work for a company because I couldn't afford all the different bits of paper I needed to be safe and legal.
On the other hand I could have just put tiles on a wall or plaster and made just the same amount of money with out having to pay large amounts of money every 5 years to work legally. When the s#it hits the fan they just hang you out to dry anyway.
People who repair boilers are a relatively new trade made possible by all the cr#p boiler manufactures out there and a public who wants cheap products.
