Can i revive a thread to ask the same question on best boiler in 2020 Is it valiant which i was looking at or something else - I just need a 25KW boiler smallish for a two bed flat

What boiler did they offer at a discount. It’s probably cheaper to buy it from a third party

Add a picture please. I have a whale shower pump and it’s great

Exactly it is very nice. Has anyone come across it. It’s a shiny copper colour. I ve not seen it in the builder merchants

I had someone come over today in London gas safe engineer recommended. he wanted £600 for labour to flush replace boiler and flue and add a filter. He will also give me a gas safety certificate. No radiators to change That does not sound too bad although it will take him one day max so...

After spending time in europe I came to admire copper guttering and Down pipes I don’t think I ve seen that in the Uk and some of my guttering needs replacing. Is there any reason why copper guttering is not more widely used ?

I’ve been told I have sludge by none other than British Gas. I know they are not great but the boiler has been playing up for years and one rad had a pinhole leak and the boiler is ten years okd and winter is coming. so yeah I m pretty sure I have sludge

I won’t be replacing the pipe work. Just the rads and trv and boiler Is replacing simple white rads really that expensive?

Thanks for such a comprehensive answer. Why do you advise against new radiators? They are around £30 each and will have rusted after years in the flat. Isn’t this the time to change the rads when the boiler is off and the pipes all getting flushed? If not now when exactly? I had a rad...

Where do people generally buy their boilers from? Is there a Toolstation screwfix equivalent for boilers and flues cheap cheerful ready for collection sort of and good customer services. Toolstation have very few boilers

The cartridge is £100 I had an aqua Lisa which had a leaking cartridge. It is cheaper to just replace the whole thermo valve then replace cartridge

Here are some pictures - It needs a flush obviously Im not sure what other info would be needed Im thinking of replacing the Baxi 600 / Baxi 800 - Any ideas on the difference \

Thank you so much. I ll post pictures of what it looks like after

Thanks a very good point indeed thank you !! I quite like the new Volvos s90 or x90. They look amazing.

Amazing thank you. Do I have to put a top coat on or can I just use the 123 a few times and leave it. Thanks again

Thanks so much. The leak was a few months ago and has been fixed. Now it’s dry. What paint is the right one to use. Zinnser 123 or zinnser primer sealer

Im still here folks!! Thanks so much for your input - Its really helpful - Will be popping in to cargiant this weekend. Still undecided on actual car ... I just want somthing new with toys and carplay so preferred high mileage - Hubby wants low mileage older car - You can see why we came...

I ve seen a few paint flaking threads here and I’d just like some help in confirming this is damp damage. Yes we had a leak from the flat above but it was a little further away from where it’s all peeled can I just sand and paint again and what paint (zinnser) or otherwise should I use for a...

I know the combustion chamber is out of bounds and I’m not trying to break in.. I have a combo boiler that needs replacing. It’s a badi and it’s about ten years old and has sludge what sort of money should I expect to pay to have a new one installed and the existing pipe work flushed?? It is...

Thanks so much. If I can ask one final question that is where do people actually buy cars from. I’m in London so car giant? Or the likes... somehow I always thought auction house with a high mileage motorway cruiser would be best. Now I’m having second thoughts
