Boiler installation FAQs

As a general UK guide, a fully fitted combi boiler typically falls between roughly £1,800 and £3,500, while system and regular boiler installations often range from around £2,200 to £4,500. The final figure depends on the boiler you choose, your property and how much pipework or flue work is needed.

New gas boilers must have a seasonal efficiency of at least 92% (ErP) and include time and temperature controls.

We install to these standards as a matter of course.
