    To existing pipework, or running pipes from an other room?

    To fit to existing pipes/valves using customers own rad and not having to drain the system down £60 + vat minimum depends on your location. This is per rad to existing pipework/valves.

    A rough guide for pipe work as well £200 - £300 + vat per rad, but it does depend on the size of property and location as labour prices differ across the country.

    it differs from each job to be honest

    Has the customer bought the rads?

    Likely pipe work will need changing if so

    depends on few things,ie is a combi,or old open vented,are they metric rads being replaced,so that would involve piping up,if old imperail ,pipes accessable ,not in a wall,simple job can turn into a pain

    i'm taking off old rads for now coz they are decorating then coming back to fit customer own rads,will need draining as it usually involves making the pipework to fit new rads
