For any home improvement job — no name, address or documents required.

ProtectMyQuote compares what you've been quoted against typical 2026 UK trade prices for that job and your region, in seconds, so you can spot a wildly overpriced quote before you sign anything.

Boiler replacement
Combi, system and regular boiler swaps, fuel-switch installs, and relocations. Price depends heavily on output size, flue routing and whether pipework needs to move. Full boiler price guide → · Check prices by city →
Solar panel installation
Panel-only or panel-plus-battery systems. System size (kW), roof type and battery capacity are the main price drivers, alongside MCS certification and export tariff eligibility. Full solar price guide → · Check prices by city →
Roof repair & replacement
Re-roofing, re-covering and larger repairs. Scaffolding, membrane quality and the condition of timber underneath all move the price once the roof is stripped back. Full roofing price guide → · Check prices by city →
Driveways
Block paving, resin-bound and tarmac driveways. Sub-base depth, drainage compliance and any dropped-kerb work are the biggest cost drivers. Full driveway price guide → · Check prices by city →
Kitchen renovation
From a straight swap to a full re-fit. Electrical and plumbing changes, worktop material, and how much making-good is needed all affect the final figure. Full kitchen price guide → · Check prices by city →
Bathroom renovation
Suite replacement through to a full wet room. Waterproofing/tanking and any plumbing re-routing are common places where quotes vary widely. Full bathroom price guide → · Check prices by city →
Windows & doors
Full or partial replacement, uPVC, timber or aluminium. Glazing spec and any structural work if opening sizes change are the main price factors. Full windows & doors price guide → · Check prices by city →
Frequently asked questions
Is ProtectMyQuote free?
Yes. Checking your quote against typical UK price ranges is completely free. If you want the full personalised report — questions to ask, what should be included, and payment protection guidance — that's a one-off £1.99.
Do I need to give my name or address?
No. ProtectMyQuote only asks for the type of job, your town or city, your region, and the price you were quoted. No name, full address or document upload is required for the free check.
How accurate are the price ranges?
The ranges are indicative, built from published 2026 UK trade-cost guides. They're designed to flag quotes that fall well outside a defensible range, not to price a job to the pound — actual cost depends on exact specification, materials, labour, access and property condition.
Which jobs does ProtectMyQuote cover?
Boiler replacement, roof repair or replacement, driveways, kitchen renovations, bathroom renovations, windows & doors, and solar panel installation.
