Boiler installations are something we all dread cost-wise. There are many Pros and Cons of Cheap Boiler Installations. Certain levels of cost naturally come to mind when you’re thinking about getting your boiler replaced, and like any competitive market, rates can vary a fair amount.
A cheap boiler installation is an attractive sight when it comes along, but don’t book the job just yet. There’s more to consider than just the amount left in your bank account at the end of the day. Let us take you through some of the positives and not-so-positives of low-cost boiler work.
The Pros
Firstly and most obviously, it’s cheaper! You’ve got more money at the end of the day and there’s less of a gap to close in your finances once all is said and done.
A cheaper installation job also means there’s more money to spend on the boiler itself. You might be able to eke out your budget by moving over some of the cost you were expecting to put into labour, letting you consider a nice Worcester Bosch model over the last best thing on the table.
If a cheap boiler installation means less saving needed, you could get a job done sooner than originally thought. Being able to get the benefit of a new boiler into the home earlier pays back in its own way. More efficient models, for instance, can reduce your energy bills over time. With current energy prices being incredibly volatile, this could pay for itself in the long run.
Finally, spending less on the installation itself could mean more for your money if the leftover can go towards a care plan or a bit extra thrown in with your service, like a wireless thermostat or having efficient new radiators added in.

The Cons
It’s true what they say: you get what you pay for. Cheap work can – and often does – mean cheap results. This isn’t necessarily the outcome in every case, but if something wasn’t done right the first time, you can end up paying a lot more than you ever would have just to get it corrected.
Cheap boilers and installations could save you money today, but what does that mean for your home and your finances in the long run? Spending that bit more on your boiler model can come with a wealth of benefits that mean better peace of mind in future. That cheap boiler isn’t going to seem like such a fantastic idea if you’re paying emergency callout fees to get it sorted within a couple of years.
Another factor to consider with cheap work is just how your trader is operating so cheaply in the first place. Ask yourself, can you fully trust the job? Savings being passed on to you, the customer, means that money isn’t being spent where it normally would be – and probably where it should be.
