I have some rads to fit where I want to take the radiator pipes into the wall and back out to feed the radiator instead of going straight under the floor. What do I need to put on the pipes in the floor to protect them. Hair felt lagging or tape?

It's a solid wall. Also would you advise angled radiators valves. Or coming out elbow and small piece of pipe to the radiator. To use angled valves id have to get the pipes dead level. As this would determine hanging the radiator. It's doable though?

It's certainly doable to use angled valves ,but you need to be very accurate in positioning the pipework.
If your not confident ,use the elbow and short vertical stub of pipe.
If the pipes are copper , buried in the wall cover them with duct tape before plastering/ cementing over.
