Underfloor heasting system - estimate of costs?

Hi all,
We are in the process of buying a 4 bed terrace house in Surrey, in need of a lot of work. I'm trying to get an idea of costs to renovate the place. At present the heating system needs totally replacing with central heating, and we've been considering an underfloor system.
The house is 1950's (we think!), with concrete floor base downstairs, and joists / floorboards upstairs. total area is roughly 100m2.
We will be replacing all the floor coverings anyway, so not factroing this into the heating costs at this stage.
What i'm after is a ball park figure for the cost of a wet underfloor heating system throughout, including new combi boiler.
Ive been guesstimating 6-8K for this. Am I anywhere near close?
Alternatively, what sort of cost would it be for a conventional radiator system (~10 radiators) to be installed (nothing too fancy).
I'll be contacting companies for quotes soon, but if this is looking like its going to be a LOT more, then we would seriously need to reconsider our purchase before things get too far (only just had the offer accepted).
TIA
