Radiator replacement across SE London
Whether the old radiator is leaking, the wrong size for the room, or simply in the wrong place, we can replace it, resize it or move it. Send us photos on WhatsApp and we reply with a fixed quote.
What we do
Photos first, fixed quote, then the work
Four steps, so you know where you stand.
Step 1: Send photos
WhatsApp photos of the radiator, its valves and the wall, with rough measurements. If you want it moved, tell us where to.
Step 2: Fixed quote
We reply with a fixed quote that says what is included, before any work starts.
Step 3: We swap or move it
We drain down as needed, fit the radiator or move the pipework, then refill the system.
Step 4: Bled and balanced
We bleed the radiator, check the valves and balance the system so the room heats evenly.
Moving a radiator
Moving a radiator means moving the pipes that feed it, and that is where most of the work is. Depending on how the pipes run, floorboards may need lifting and the old position needs capping or filling. Photos of the wall, the floor below and the current pipework let us give you a fixed quote without guessing.
Moving a radiator to a better wall is often what frees up space for furniture, or lets a room heat more evenly. Tell us what is going in the room and where.
Radiators recessed into a wall
We have fitted radiators recessed into a wall, which keeps the room clear and gives a flush finish. Whether it works depends on the wall: how deep it is, what it is made of, and whether anything inside it needs to stay. If a wall is structural, that needs checking before anything is cut.
Send us a photo of the wall and the space, and say how much depth you can use. We will tell you what is possible and quote for it.
Choosing the right size
A radiator that is too small will never heat the room, and one that is far too big wastes space. Tell us the room size, what the room is used for and the measurements of the radiator you have now, and we will advise on a replacement that suits.
We work mainly on combination boiler heating systems. If you are not sure what you have, send a photo of the boiler and we will tell you.
What to send us on WhatsApp
- The radiator, and the valves at each end
- The wall and the floor around it
- Rough measurements of the current radiator
- Where you would like it moved to, if you are moving it
- A photo of the boiler, so we know the system

Send photos on WhatsAppFrequently asked questions
How much does a radiator replacement cost?
There is no set price, because every job is different. Send us photos on WhatsApp and we will give you a fixed quote.
Can you move a radiator to another wall?
Yes. It means moving the pipework, so send photos of the wall, the floor and the current radiator and we will quote a fixed price.
Can a radiator be recessed into a wall?
Yes, we have fitted radiators recessed into a wall. It depends on the wall, so send us photos and the depth you can use, and we will say what is possible.
Do you need to drain the whole system?
Usually the system, or part of it, has to be drained down to swap or move a radiator. We refill it afterwards, add inhibitor, bleed the radiator and balance the system.
Will you fit new thermostatic valves at the same time?
Yes, if you want them. See TRV installation for what that involves.
Do you do column radiators?
Yes, see column radiators.
