As a punter, "about £800, might be a bit cheaper", sounds very good,
and a combi is a fair solution to the problem. It will be a fairly
basic boiler though, unless he is making very little on it.
Not a combi as it's only for heating. A multi-point, I'd guess.

I assume that you mean, "..............only for heating *water*....." in
which case I would agree that a multipoint seems to be the simple answer.
As a multipoint costs about £350 and there seems to be very little new
pipework involved in this case I think she should at least get another quote
for the job. Labour rates vary considerably from one area to another and
£800-00 seems to be a little high for a provincial plumber.
