I have a small bungalow which is heated by a combi boiler.All the lockshield valves are fully open.Would I benefit by balancing the system bearing in mind that all my rads are on one level ie bungalow also the bathroom rad does not have a trv fitted all the other rads do ,a total of 5 rads,would the bathroom rad have to be balanced as well.

If your combi has no integeral bypass fitted then the bathroom rad should be kept fully open. With only 5 rads with 4 on TRV's i don't think balancing is required unless you find a distinct delay in rad temp on initial heating.
Have a play, try restricting a few lockshields down and see how the system performs.
