    Hole around gas pipe

    Just wrap the short bits of unsleeved pipe in tape to protect from lime in the cement and fill. Denso tape is what is normally used but any protective tape will do.

    Old Radiators - New TRV's

    How much difference are we talking ? I would cut the copper and put new pieces in but if you are not confident then it might be easier to drop the rad 1/2" or whatever. Most rad valves will be the same length.

    Draining Down CW Storage Tank

    Turn off supply to tank and use a hosepipe to empty it by syphoning it either outside or into wc/bath. It works well and empties quite quickly. If you force the gate valve it could snap.

    central heating loop pipe

    Your boiler may have a bypass or you can put an automatic bypass in between the flow and return or you can remove one TRV (bathroom). If it's a combi then no bleed would normally be needed in loft.
