I wonder has anyone recently had a new combi boiler fitted? I was wondering what was the minimum price i could expect to pay?

I've an old boiler, about 16 years old, which has been pretty reliable over the years, but its now in need of a Powerflush.

I've been quoted £695 by BG for that and a Spirovent Magna Booster which should help prevent future deposits entering the boiler, and would like to know if anyone else has had this done too, and if it was money well spent.

I've just had a BG chap round who quoted £3,300 for a replacement, which quite frankly i cant afford. Apparently as my flue isnt to current regulations, this needs to be altered and as ive a small porch area out back, they will need to hire scaffold at a cost of £500!

So if anyone else has recently had a replacement, could you tell me how much it cost!

Best Regards - Taggy
