Common radiator repairs we carry out
We specialise in various radiator repair services to keep your heating system operating as it should. Our skilled technicians aim to fix your radiators quickly and effectively with most repairs complete on the same day.
Repair leaking radiators
Fixing leaking radiators is a common task for us. We find the leak’s source, whether it’s in the pipes, joints, or valves. Then, we fix it quickly to stop water damage to floors, walls or ceilings.
Radiator powerflushing
Powerflushing your radiators is great for improving the efficiency of your central heating system. It removes sludge, rust, and scale that builds up over time inside radiators and pipework. This clears blockages, boosting heat output and reducing radiator noises.
Radiator bleeding
Bleeding radiators is crucial to maximise heat output. We remove trapped air to stop cold spots occuring and boost heat output. This simple step greatly improves your heating system’s work.
Balance radiators
Ensuring even heat throughout your home, from room to room, means balancing radiators. Our technicians adjust the hot water flow to each radiator. This balances water flow and optimises your central heating output, and may lower your energy bills.
We offer these radiator repair services to keep your heating system in great shape. This ensures comfort and efficiency in your home or business.
Radiator repair vs. radiator replacement
Deciding between fixing or replacing your radiator can be hard. We look at many things to decide what’s best for your heating system. For small leaks or if the radiator is not heating evenly across the surface, fixing it is cheaper. But if your radiator is old, rusting or leaking in other places than at the valves, it might be better to replace it.
We consider several things when helping our customers decide:
- Age of the radiator
- Extent of failure
- Current central heating efficiency and output
Our Gas Safe registered engineers can guide you to the best option. Sometimes, a simple repair is all that is needed. In other cases, getting a new radiator is the best option for warmth as new radiators tend to output much more heat than older radiators due to their modern design and construction.
An efficient heating system can also mean lower energy bills. Even though replacing a radiator might cost more at first, it could save you even more money over time. We’re here to help you make the right choice for your home’s heating, ensuring you get good value for your money.
