How much is it to install central heating?
We just bought our first flat in London - one bedroom, lounge, kitchen, hall, bath - and it does not have central heating. Thought I could last the winter but its not looking like we can. Any idea on a general cost? We do have an existing gas supply. No room for a hot water tank, so looking at combination boiler. Thanks.

Up north a good combi ( Worcester 28KW Greenstar Junior) and 5 rads around £ 3,200.00 London well I would expect it to be £500 more.
Good luck
Get three estimates and try to get some one that comes recommended.
Remember you must by law use a CORGI registered installer and one that is energy efficiency registered he then can register the installation with CORGI. You will then be given a certificate that you will require when you sell your flat.
If your unsure about an installer then ask to see his registration card or ring Corgi on 0870 401 2300

hiya if you have a look through your local paper plumbers sometimes do deals on parts and labour i had mine installed last year and it cost me £1500 but thats down south so im not sure how much you would pay up there, give a few people from the yellow pages a ring mst of them do a free quote.
