wow these forums are aggressive :shock: All I asked was if it's something that's possible. Surley if I routed the pipes and then got Corgi guy to check everything and do the finial corrections\connections. then I don't think this would be illigal or unsafe as it is finially checked and...

Hi Just about to move into a 1930's house. The painted walls and ceiling are quite smooth but not smooth enough for us as we want it to feel like a new house. I think it currently has lining paper on both ceiling and walls. So I have a few questions ? 1) To get the new look do we get...

tnks for the replies guys, so do you recommend refilling the system first. Even though it may have a leak.

thanks stupid question but how do I do that ?, persume I will need a hose pipe. i'm reasonabily DIY competent just not when it comes to boiler. Also the tenents said there was water below the boiler so I persume that may have something to do with it..(Do I not need to get that sorted.)
