could somebody please tell me if it is possible to get gas laid on to my flat and if so how much would it cost and what channels do i have to go through? i live in a ground floor flat which is electric night storage heating at the moment but is so cold in the winter. if i can get the gas to the block how much would it cost to get GSH installed.
please help
many thanks

Hi John,
Are you sure no gas service to the property whatsoever.
If not £1000's you need to check with national grid.
To install GCH, is a guess also, but circa £1800 - £3000
Need more info on the property you live in etc

hi steve thanks for your reply,
the property is a one bed flat on the ground floor, everything is electric and i have to wait ages for the water to heat up which is a pain, there is not gas to the block at all, there is gas in the road as our neighbours have it but we do not, i was hoping it would be quite reasonable but now im not so sure.

John,
It does boil down to how far from a main you are,proximity of pipes available, what they have to dig etc. I believe they put a sort of price per linear metre to the job.
