Summer DIY Jobs – Gardening and Heating!

Summer is obviously the time that we spend much more time gardening, and there are lots of jobs to keep us busy from lawn mowing to pruning and weeding, but have you thought that now is also the perfect time to replace your radiators or boiler?

There is nothing worse than finding out your heating system needs replacing in the middle of winter when it is cold wet and miserable. It is much better to thinking about maintaining your heating system in June or July when you don’t actually need it – hopefully!

We have projects explaining how your heating system works and on replacing your boiler including combi boilers if you have a gas system or oil-fired boilers where gas in not available.

We also wanted to introduce you to Paladin Radiators and their fantastic range of cast iron radiators. We like their range of cast iron radiators because they are timeless and efficient, and they are much more durable than modern day radiators. They also allow you to make a real design statement in your home.
