What did you pay

apricot it is cheaper in London to get a boiler serviced-£75 and I thought that was daylight robbery.

I have never had a dry hair trim but a cut, wash and blow dry is £22 but at hairdressers about 2 miles away, it is £45 +++.

Never realised how much I was saving by always doing my own decorating. 500pound seems an awful lot.

I pay 24pound for roots, trim and blow dry on pensioners' day in South Cornwall.

£55 for boiler service
£30 for wash, cut and blowdry
Sold the piano
No longer have a dog
Waiting and waiting for a quote to paint hall, stairs and landing

(West country)

£55 for cut and blow dry in N W London.
£10 an hour for a cleaner

€35 for cut,wash and blow dry here in Dordogne - I paid a similar price in South Wales too but when I had high/low lights they were cheaper in France. Most other services are more expensive here I think but luckily we can do most things ourselves.

£72 for highlights, cut and blow dry
£10 per hour for a cleaner
DH does the decorating
The boiler is due in May.

£80 for boiler service
£55 for wash, cut and blowdry
Sold the piano
Never had any pets (apart from 2 hamsters)
£100 to have ceiling 23ft x 8ft painted from bare plaster (primer and two coats of satin finish.) including paint.

Not much point in this unless posters say what area they live in!

True!

My dry trim costs the same as the OP' s. Seem to remember DH doing some decorating in the dim and distant past. No dog. Boiler under a year old.

South East.

Boiler service £80 (Polish plumber)
Piano tuned £65
Dry hair trim £10.50

Reasonable prices for this area (Berkshire )

£91 for an oil boiler service

£7 for a dry cut

£21 to have my cat put to sleep (no dog!)

£900 (plus cost of paper) to have dining room, stairs and landing painted, papered and emulsioned. Sounds a lot but it is an absolutely b*** of a job - 5 windows, 7 doors and only one piece of paper can go on without being cut around something !

Last time I had a decorator in he charged several thousands but did paint every room, not that well as I keep finding

to have your boiler serviced? - No idea, the landlord takes care of it.

to have your piano tuned? - No piano.

to have a small dog's teeth cleaned (4 premolars removed) - no dog

for a dry hair trim? - only have a cut and blow dry at £35

to have a room (9ft x 14ft) and stairwell painted? - much tea, biscuits, cakes and encouragement to DH, and sometimes assisting myself too. Often wondered if in long run it might be cheaper to get someone in.

I'm in Bucks.
