I joined this forum as I am hobby DIY’er and I had trouble with some leaking radiator extensions. I got some excellent advice from members, one of which lived locally to me and was a professional plumber (Atomic Plumbing).
So when I came across another problem, which seemed impossible for me to get round I contacted Anthony directly to see if he could come out and sort out my dilemma. Being the kind chap he is he told me the solution which worked perfectly.
For most of you this will be a simple solution to a simple problem, but if like me you are a beginner then it may be of some benefit to you.
I have been changing over old imperial radiators to new metric ones and I thought my only issue was with the length of the radiators, but when I went to change one double for another I discovered that the pipes were now far too close to the wall and wouldn’t come out far enough to connect to the new radiator. The answer was of course to lift the carpets and knick out a bit of the floorboard to allow the pipes to come out far enough to fit the new larger radiator. Problem Solved!!!!
