What affects the price

What affects boiler installation prices?

The six biggest factors that push your boiler quote up or down.

Boiler brand & model

Worcester Bosch & Vaillant sit at the premium end. Ideal Logic & Baxi offer strong budget options.

Boiler type & size

Combi is cheapest to install. System & regular boilers need cylinder work.

Relocation

Moving a boiler to a different room adds £400–£900 in pipework & flue.

Power flush required?

Systems over 10 years old often need flushing (£300–£500) to keep your guarantee valid.

Smart controls

Nest, Hive or Google Home thermostats add £150–£300 supply + fit.

Region

London engineers charge 25–40% above national average labour rates.

How much does a new boiler cost in 2026?

The average UK price for a like-for-like combi boiler replacement is £2,690, supplied and fitted. A full system conversion (combi from regular, with pipework) runs £3,500–£4,500.

0% finance is available from most of our matched installers, spreading the cost over 24–60 months.

Which boiler should I buy?

  • Worcester Bosch — Which? Best Buy for 15 years running. 10-year guarantees common.
  • Vaillant — German engineering, very quiet. Excellent mid-premium choice.
  • Ideal Logic — Best budget option. 10-year guarantee on the Logic Max.
  • Viessmann — Rapidly growing market share, great efficiency.

Combi, system or regular?

Combi is best for homes with 1 bathroom. No tank needed, instant hot water. System is best for 2+ bathrooms (hot water stored in cylinder). Regular/conventional is for older homes with existing open-vented systems.

Free tip: Always check your installer offers the full manufacturer-backed guarantee (Worcester Bosch & Vaillant offer 10 years). Cowboy fitters void them by using unapproved parts.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is it free to use?+

Yes — 100% free and no obligation. Our matched installers pay a small referral fee if you decide to go ahead with one of their quotes. You pay nothing to use Instant Home Quotes.

Will I get spam calls?+

No. Your details go only to the installers we match you with — up to three, never more. We don’t sell your data to lead brokers, and you choose which quotes to reply to.

How are the installers vetted?+

Every installer is checked for FENSA, Certass, Gas Safe, MCS or CPA accreditation as relevant, plus public liability insurance and Companies House records. We re-check quarterly.

How long do quotes take?+

Most installers reply within 24 hours. In peak seasons (spring & autumn) it can stretch to 48 hours. We’ll follow up with any that are slow.

Do you cover the whole UK?+

Yes — we match across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Rural postcodes sometimes match with fewer installers; we’ll always be upfront if that’s the case.

What if none of the quotes are right?+

Simply don’t reply. You’re under no obligation. You can also request a fresh match set if you’d like different installers — just use the form again.
