Cost of relocating a boiler?

Hello,

I've just moved into a house and the boiler is located in the kitchen. It's not a massive kitchen and a cupboard there would be a much better use of space!
The bathroom is quite large and has room for the boiler and for an airing cupboard to be built around it.

Has anyone had experience of relocating a boiler like this? Any idea of what it might cost us?

I should add, the boiler works fine and is about 4 years old. Can't remember the make off the top of my head but I do have all the paperwork for it.

Thanks very much

Hellie

  • New boiler fitted would cost you between 2 and 4 grand, depending on the make and how difficult the job is. The boiler cost is less than half of this. They'll have to run a gas pipe up to the bathroom, and link the boiler up with your heating system. It all depends on how accessible the pipework is.

    you can get a new boiler fitted for about 1500 quid in manchester.

    Good evening: I can't give you a price as cost is dependent on site conditions and requirements. CORGI has issued this advice to RGIs. Many CORGIs will not get involved in boiler relocations for the reasons outlined in the document. e.g.unless my OH was the original installer and conducted annual servicing on the appliance he would turn down the work but that his way of running his business.;)
