Chickened out replacing a towel warmer myself so called in a guy I found online. I actually had fitted the brackets to the wall and the only thing he had to do was connect the valves to towel warmer using a couple of short pieces of chrome pipe supplied and cut to size by me.Quoted £40 and I said fine and he spent almost an hour fitting 4 compression nuts and downing the young plumbers of today. "They cant handle lead joints. They throw in plastic pipe whenever they can and have no pride in their work". He went on and on until the nuts were fitted and said we would would have a coffee before he checked the radiator for air. I went to use the toilet and then asked how he was going to remove the ring spanner from the pipe connecting the thermostat to the radiator. He just exploded and with a face like beetroot, picked up his tools and stormed out. Hasn't come back for his cash or his money so I dont know where I am. These older plumbers! I ask you.
