    Thermostatic valves are something you'd fit yourself.

    The valves are not dear.

    I say the above as someone with very basic diy skills.

    Where are you based?

    Hi can you tell me are the pipes comming from the ground or the walls? What type of floor or wall are they coming from? What material are the pipes, gun barrel / copper/ qualplex? How old are the radiators?

    +1 for Alan. We're in the same estate as he is, so he's handy and local for us. Replaced the PCB in our boiler when it went a couple of years ago, for a very reasonable price, and he's done the last 2 annual services on the boiler too.
