Stab in the dark - oil to gas

I know this is kind of doing things the wrong way round for this forum but we're about to complete on a 3 bed semi in Belfast.

We're considering changing the house from oil central heating to gas and have no idea how much it is likely to cost.
As I say it's 3 bed semi, as far as we can make out no radiators need replaced. Removal of old boiler, installation of new combi boiler and gas hob.

Any ideas?
Thanks
Kelcoll

    I have heard that when changing to a combi boiler that all the pipe work could need changing due to them operating at a higher pressure and any small holes in pipework will become apparent and leak.

    Depending on make, model & size etc, I would think around £2k.

    Have you gas at the property already? If not you need to allow for this as well.
