Why you should get a plumber to install a radiator

Maybe you want to update your home with modern, sleeker-looking radiators. Or perhaps you want to heat up a cold room. Whatever the reason, installing a new radiator involves working with your home’s pipework and doing some heavy lifting. So we recommend booking a qualified plumber for the job.

Your plumber will first dress the radiator and attach the air vents carefully. They’ll connect the radiator tail and then work out the centre point of where the radiator should fit on your wall. Once they have the measurements in place, they’ll drill and plug the wall. Your plumber will then measure and mark up changes to the pipework, make the cut and connect the pipes. Finally, they’ll attach the valves, fix up the floorboards and carpet, and test your heating system before they go.
