We are having boiler problems and are getting tank system removed for a combi boiler.
Had quote of £3490.00 for below works.
Looking online the boiler we are getting is about £1230 and the shower is about £250 so is this a reasonable quote for below work?

See if you can find out how long the job will last, but the quote is not a thin one, although getting the old water tank from the loft and attendant work might be a problem, and clearing waste might add to the cost. get another quote to compare it with.
Bare in mind additional materials to add to the above work.
Gas pipe seams a bit on the large side and there is a lot of rip out and replace with old for new. Generally padded out normal quote.
I would say you have a lot of labour there and thats where the money gos. I know BG will charge around 3k just for a boiler rip out and install.
