Current situation water tank is in the loft would like it moving maybe metre and half / 3 metres max so i can make better use of space

how much is this going to cost me roughly

Probably not much as all you have to do is:

Shut off water supply
Drain the tank
Undo feed, outlet and overflow.
Reposition tank to new position. The plumber will need to place a piece of timber underneath to spread the load
Reconnect feed outlet and overflow after rerouting as necessary to new position
Refill tank and check for leaks

Probably around 6 hours work

so as a ballpark what are we looking at, could he just reuse the timbers that are currently there, Do you think possibly a diy job ?

Our 35 year old water tank just replaced as was starting to corrode. Is your tank metal? If so would recomend before shifting.
