Hello there,

I have recently moved into my first flat and unfortunately it is plagued with awful and useless storage heaters! Therefore, I am thinking about getting central heating installed at some point this year (then hopefully more than 2 rooms will be warm at once!!).

It is a conversion flat, first floor and there is gas in the building (most flats have the gas and their are 9 in total), I have 4.5 rooms (seperate loo) but would only want 4 radiators.

So, if there is anyone who can give me a rough price to aim for, I would be really grateful!

Thank you!!!!

Oh and I live in the south east, nr. Littlehampton (but not IN Littlehampton ;) )

    Not sure if it makes any difference depending on whether the floors are solid/floorboards? Might make a difference to the quote so worth mentioning when getting ideas of cost :)

    We are budgeting £5000, but that is for a three bedroom house (inc. downstairs hall, bathroom, dining room and lounge).
