About this job

Replacing tired or corroded radiators makes a room warmer and look better. Dexter fits like for like replacements, modern column and designer radiators, and new thermostatic radiator valves so each room can be set to the temperature you want.

The photos below are his own work: anthracite and white column radiators, cast-iron style radiators and tall vertical radiators. He sizes each radiator to the room, so it heats the space properly rather than just looking the part, and runs the pipework neatly.

If radiators are cold at the bottom or in patches, the problem may be sludge rather than the radiator itself. A power flush can fix that.

Dexter was extremely helpful and friendly, and was able to fix and repipe my leaky radiator on short notice and for a fair price. Would not hesitate to recommend :) thank you!

    Recently Dexter conducted an annual service on my boiler. I asked him about the replacement of 3 radiators which were showing some signs of corrosion as well as the decommissioning and removal of an old gas fire. His quote was competitive and realistic, and we agreed a date and a price for the work. ...

    Had lots of work carried out by Dexter. Including radiator installs, vented cylinder installation, boiler service, toilet repairs. Very knowledgeable, very clean and works efficiently. Would highly recommend him to anyone needing any plumbing/heating works

    I had decided to change my gas boiler as it was over 10 years old and wanted some advice about a new radiator. DWM was one of 3 quotes I had and Dexter’s polite and informative approach swung my decision. ...

your questions

Do you fit column and designer radiators?

Yes. Dexter fits column, designer, vertical and standard radiators.

Can a radiator be moved?

Yes. Moving a radiator needs new pipework, which Dexter prices with the job.

What are thermostatic radiator valves?

They let you set each radiator to a temperature, so rooms you use less can be kept cooler and save energy.

Can you fix a leaking radiator?

Yes. Leaking valves and joints can often be repaired, and Dexter will tell you if the radiator itself needs replacing.
