After getting 3 quotes for what seemed ( to me ) to be absolute rip-off prices and being told that "if you don't use a corgi reg fitter you will die.... its that simple mate " I then went ahead and fitted my own combi boiler. I had never even plumbed a tap before in my life nor changed a tap washer, none of those technical things, what I do have is common sense. The best quote I had was £500 labour and was told it would take 2 days due to it not being a the same make of boiler out as in. I did it myself in 6 hours without any experience and having to go buy a couple tools and standard tea breaks..... oh and it cost me £25.00. That was 18 months ago and I'm still here to tell the tail. I have since remodelled the bathroom including fitting and extractor fan (which I wired myself) I have rewired my garage/workshop totally I have replaced all the windows in my house. I have also been told that if I rewire my house "you will die....its that simple mate" Guess what my next job is........
These so-called experts may have a license to print money but it won't be my money
