Central heating off limits for DIYer?

Perhaps some useful tips might be better!
Simple job swoping a few rads out isn't it? I'll try running the CH with the gas off and see what happens.
If I could get someone for a sensible price, I'd employ someone, but as they all want to charge upwards of 240 per day, save the money, and have enough left over for beers and b and q prices!

A useful tip from me is don't come onto a site asking for advice and then alienate all the professionals by insinuating that they are over charging.

Just give it a go, what's the worst that can happen? It'll only cost you a few thousand to replace your boiler if you destroy it.

Yes, that's what I'll do.
Thanks for those that made constructive comments.

I don't think he did. Some people can't afford to pay Gas Safe rates.
Some won't pay, others just can't. It's just a fact of life.

£25/hr is cheap compared to most, though.
