anyone know how much it costs to connect to gas mains

[mummyjaguar]

or is it entirely dependent on location. This house is in a village which has mains gas. Its on the mian street and not set far back. The current system is ancient and oil fired

I don't know but I'm bumping for you as I'm in a similar situation.

It does depend on how far from the main pipe. It costs at least £2k in my experience (that was a five metre distance).

Think it was about £600 for us, four years ago - we're about 3m from the main but it had to come further along the side of the house.

BG did it I think (transco)

sure it was about that.

October 2006 I paid £427 with Wales and West Utilities. Similar circumstances/distances as yourself.

DH phoned to check that they hadn't made a typo in the quote.

Thanks everyone. managed to find out the local area is goverened by transco and they have quoted me £612 all in. Very pleasantly surprised!

Oh that's good! I think we need to become heating buddies
