I'm in the process of buying a late 60s semi, and the homebuyer's report has flagged up that the central heating system is old and hasn't been updated for a long time, and will probably need substantial repairs soon and/or replacing with a newer efficient system.
This is our first house, so we're not really sure what kind of costs that will entail. We can't really ask a plumber to come and give us quotes because we're not in the house yet. I'm guessing the current boiler is roughly 1980s, with a hot water tank. We would probably want to get a nice efficient boiler (Condensing?), plus a new main thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves put on the existing radiators.
Does anyone have any idea what the likely cost might be? Just a ballpark figure, like will it cost us =A320, =A32000 or =A32000000?
