Manufacturers fixed price repairs

[Scott_D]

Do you offer this to customers or not?

Example, I have a 10 year old Vaillant with f62 could be PCB or gas valve
PCB is around £250 for the part
Fixed price repair around £300

I have just repaired it with a new pressure sensor for F75 and luckily they had F62 before I arrived so I am not to blame

A couple of years ago, I was meeting with a heating supplier in regards to a service contract for their heaters.
I asked for a price list for their spare parts so that I could quote / charge for repairs on the spot.
I would have to have parts on hand for repairs and wanted to know the amount of stock I would have to have on hand.
He printed out the price list for me and put it in a binder.

Somehow, their cost price sheet was added.
Their cost from the manufacture for a PCB was $45.00.
Their price to me for servicing their boilers under contract was $225.00.
Their list price was near $350.00.

My normal price for the PCB was 275.00, if I didn't have a service contract. (This is what I had been paying in the past)

That's the mark up the spare parts

Go Figure!!!!

F75 can turn very bad especially when it turns into an intermittent fault.

See my previous posts about the pressure sensor Matchless. Not that I would 'ever' work on a boiler as I'm not GS and therefore utterly incompetent 😉

It’s a common part which gets blocked quite often.
