    The electrician will charge you 100 quid to move the few sockets and switches, a plumber will be much the same to drain down the system, plumb the rad, refill and bleed the system, allow 50 quid for plumbing fittings and the cost of the new rad. Say 150?. I would say a few 4x2 slabs and a bag of joint filler will do the patching and 50 quid for a skip bag to get the rid of the junk.

    Double it for Dublin pricing!

    Seriously though, if you check donedeal there are plenty of plumbers and electricians that'll come out and do that sort of work for handy money. For instance moving the socket and switch is about an hours work at the very most.

    Maybe im a little low on the plumber but not by much.

    Brother's mate is a plumber, so he's not getting any more than that - I think I'd manage the rest myself, but say would 750 be a fair price if it was done start to finish, and materials, by someone being paid to do the job?

    I would have thought you be getting quotes of around a grand to 1200.
