Hadn't thought of that. It's quite a big bathroom and only has a single-glazed window. There must be towl rails out there that throw out enough heat.

Brilliant. Thanks for the help. I'm sure the plumber will do the draining down, etc when it comes to fitting the towel rail. For now I'm just happy to get the rad off the wall without flooding the room.

Don't I need to cap the pipes or something? I don't mind being without a rad in the bathroom for a while but I'd still like to use the rest of the rads in the flat.

I'm painting a bathroom and don't know what paint to use. I'll be painting the ceiling and walls which don't come in direct contact with water (the area around the bath and shower is tiled). I want to protect the bathrrom as best I can against mould and mildew and I've read that bathroom paint...

I am going to install an extractor fan in my bathroom and I'm hoping to do it wih minimal disruption to the ceiling and walls. There is a vent already, obviously on an outside wall, which looks to be a good place to install the new extractor. I'll get a spark in to do it but is it a difficult...

I am planning to install a heated towel rail in my bathroom. There is already a radiator there and and piping. First, I need to remove the old rad to make good the wall underneath for painting. Is there an easy way to remove the rad and cap the pipes while I sort out the wall underneath. I'm not...

I'm just sorting out the bathroom in my new flat and I need to install and extractor fan and a light above the mirror. Can this be done without demolishing too much of the walls? I assume if I want them wired to the mains then it's quite a major and messy job. In that case, are there battery...

I'm going to replace my radiator in the bathroom with a heated towel rail. I'll probably pay to get it done as I'm not confident enough to do it myself. My questions is, do I have to do anything to reinforce the wall? The wll where the current rad is located is plasterboard and I'm concerned...

That's what I thought. I don't know why it was put there in the first place as it looks awful - little effort made to hide the joins in the paper. I take it that it's not advisable to leave the plasterboard exposed for too long after stripping the walls? My bathroom is part-tiled as well...

The bathrrom of the flat I recetnly bought only has lining paper on the walls and ceiling. This is starting to come away in places and needs replacing. My question is, is it better getting the walls and ceiling skimmed in this room rather than putting up lining paper?

I recently bought my first flat and now need to sort out the bathroom. I've bought some vinyl floor tiles that I intend to lay myself (though may not depending on the advice I get here). My bathroom currently has cork floor tiles laid directly onto the floorbaords (you can see the line of the...
