The first thing you need to look for when surfing for boiler installation prices is the Gas Safe Logo. See our article here on Gas Safe Engineers for more information on trading standards agency.

Once you have verified that the gas engineers are in fact Gas Safe registered then you should proceed to verify the boiler installation prices.

“Boiler Installation companies” which are not Gas Safe Registered usually try excite you with extortionately low boiler installation prices. This is because they cannot guarantee the installation or give you a valid certificate for the installation.

As each company can vary in boiler installation prices, the cost of a boiler installation London is not something which should have a huge gap between companies. When you look at the boiler prices of a company like British Gas, these prices are only like this because of their large overheads. However, British Gas does try to fill the boiler installation packages with other goodies such as personal insurance and long guarantees, but it does not account for the excessive  pricing of new boiler installations.
