We found out that my late parents' home in Cheshire had it in the loft - via a buyer's survey - and just as my two big sisters were off to the U.S. for two weeks. So Baby sis organised it all from London, and it took two days - and they were super-efficient and cleaned up brilliantly. It cost about £2-3k. I hope you have similar luck.
