Should get change from £500.


You can get an idea of the price of radiators online from Wickes or Screwfix.
The actual fitting of them is not a big job. My friendly neighbourhood plumber recently charged me less than £150 for fitting 3 replacement radiators.
Get a personal recommendation from a friend or relative if you can.
If you've got a pair of stilsons or water pump grips and know how to bleed a radiator and top up the system then you can do it yourself.
Not wishing to be in any way sexist, I would hazard a guess that the OP, unlike Siggy or myself, doesn't count a Stillsons among her prized possessions!
Haha ... good point Michael.

More involved if the existing rads are old (possibly Imperial size), and alterations have to be made to the pipework.
I have a Stillsons!
lol.. as if ;o)
A slightly more serious reply to Siggy:
I find that Stillsons, with their serrated jaws, can chew up the nuts on the radiator tails and valves. Better to use flat jawed moveable spanners, methinks.
I do know, for a fact, that Sara does have a large drill. It often comes out in times of stress ;o)
