Many homeowners and landlords in the harrow area and beyond are tempted to attempt DIY on their new bathroom installation. It’s a tempting thought – you save money on labour charges and it’s a project you can get stuck into. However, ask any professional bathroom installations company and they will tell you that, while most DIY-ers with limited skills can actually replace their own bathrooms, the end result lacks the precision, skill, and aesthetic excellence that it would have if done by a time-served craftsman. Many others think about becoming a project manager, allocating different work at different stages to a plumber, a plasterer, a tiler, an electrician, a decorator, and a unit installer. It might sound cheaper but that’s multiple tradesmen’s profit margins you’ll be paying together with the headache of getting the right people in at the right time. Based in Harrow and serving the community across North London, the Peter Brown bathroom installation team is almost certain to be the quicker, cheaper option with a guarantee of a beautiful new bathroom under guarantee at the end.

Stop heat being lost up the chimney. It’s now fairly common to have fireplaces that are merely decorative. If you’re not using yours then you should consider a chimney balloon, says Potter. “There’s an amazing amount of heat that can be lost through an open fireplace,” she says. A chimney balloon, made from a special laminate, can be bought for about £20 and works by being placed inside the chimney hole, just out of sight. It’s then inflated until it completely shuts out any incoming cold air or escaping heat. Just be sure not to start a fire without removing it. There are also woollen chimney insulators on the market. But again, make sure you remove them before starting any fires.

Upgrade heating controls: Smart thermostat imageRoom thermostats allow households to set and maintain the temperature at home. A programmer sets the heating to turn on and off at certain times of the day to suit your lifestyle. Thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) let householders control the temperature of each radiator. Cost: Costs can vary significantly due to the variety of heating systems types and sizes and controls available. We recommended comparing quotes from professional installers. Saving: Installing and using a full set of heating controls means that you can be warm exactly when and where you want in your home. You could also save around £80 a year if you currently don’t have any of these heating controls.

When your Peter Brown engineer is performing a power flush, they’ll connect the special equipment needed to your central heating. We don’t need to take off any of your radiators to complete your power flush successfully. Special power flush cleaning fluid is pumped through your system and that begins to loosen the gunge and the rust that’s built up. If your radiator has cold spots, that’s where a build up of unwanted material has occurred and the power flush will quickly remove it. The sludge and the rust then start to come out of the radiator which your engineer will collect and dispose of it. Once your engineer is confident that they have removed everything from your system, they’ll flush it again until the water coming out of the radiators is clean and is acid- and alkali-neutral. The final touch is to flush the radiators again with a protecting fluid to impede any future build-up of sludge and rust. Find extra info at https://www.peterbrown.net/harrow-power-flushing.html.

Here’s how to keep your house warm with some easy foil insulation. Cover a thin sheet of card with tinfoil and place it behind your radiators (if you’re feeling particularly crafty you can make it T-shaped so it sits on your radiator brackets). It’ll reflect the heat back into your rooms, meaning they warm up faster and retain more heat. If DIY isn’t your thing, you can also buy ready made foil insulation.
