I think you can get the best advice from the relevant websites if you google

Research the combi boiler, there are good and bad ones out there, you're looking at around 1000 quid though, could be a lot more but not much less.

There's websites now which allow you to post a job and get quotes.

The tradespeople and firms have to pay to send you a quote, so you only get genuine quotes.

I saved thousands using these sites getting a couple of big jobs done, including a new boiler.

You can easily get a baxi duotec + flue kit for less than £800 comes with a 7 year warranty.

If youre buying valiant then the price will be around double.

Baxi also do a 10 year warranty on the platinums.

on the road to nowhere in particular

Just had an ideal logic fitted, the boiler on its own cost around £600. It is worth paying a little extra for a Worcester Bosch if you can. You are looking at £500 up for an independent engineer to fit and double that for British Gas or Servowarm to fit.

With a few extras mine came in at £1400 in total.

True but you couldnt get it fitted for £800 notes.. Does the OP already have a combi and if so,what make/model/whats up with it?

Blackburn

A good Worcester or valiant for an average size house (approx 32kW) is approximately £1000 add to that your bit n bobs another 150, labour....depends on where in the country you are, up north 350 n with that you'd get 7year manufacturer warranty and your gas safe certificate, it's only a day job but down south I know it can go up to £700

someone i know had normal boiler and tank , paid 1700 all in and it was a worcester, even if you get a good plumber who isnt gas registered, the boiler guarantee is void, as this has to signed etc by a gas reg plumber

I thought it was illegal for it to be connected ( to the gas) by anyone other than a registered gas fitter?

And your house insurance would be voided?

I'm sure I heard about a government grant scheme where you can get money off if you have an old boiler replaced with a modern energy efficient one? Not sure if the scheme is still running though?
