Small jobs welcome. The examples above are not the limit. Send photos and a postcode if your issue is similar but not listed.
Different examples of this type of job
Radiator work can involve a leaking union, worn TRV, towel-radiator valve, replacement radiator or a small pipe alteration. The images deliberately show different types of job.
Image note: these photographs illustrate the type of fault or work described. They are not presented as a portfolio of completed GMP projects.
Finished radiator installation or replacementA correctly fitted radiator should be level, securely supported and connected without strain on the valves or pipework. Poor alignment can lead to persistent seepage, noise or damage around the wall and floor. We can replace suitable domestic radiators, adapt accessible connections where required, refill the affected section and check the joints and heat output after the work.Leaking radiator valve repair or replacementMoisture around a radiator valve may come from the spindle, compression nut, union or adjoining pipe. A slow leak can stain flooring, encourage corrosion and eventually become more serious when the heating system is hot and pressurised. We identify the actual leak point, tighten or reseal serviceable joints, or replace the valve where repair is not dependable.Towel-radiator valve and connection faultsTowel radiators often have exposed valves positioned close to tiles, flooring and bathroom furniture, so even minor leakage should not be ignored. Corroded fittings, worn seals or movement in the pipe can allow water to escape repeatedly. We inspect both sides of the radiator, repair or replace the affected valve and verify the connections after the system is restored.Panel radiator changes and practical alterationsA damaged, undersized or badly positioned panel radiator can affect comfort and may be difficult to maintain. Replacement is not only about connecting a new unit: the brackets, valve spacing, pipe condition and wall fixing all need to be suitable. We assess the existing arrangement, explain any limitations and complete an appropriate domestic replacement or minor alteration where access allows.
