Cast iron radiator restoration
Do your cast iron radiators need restoring or repainting? Whether you’re renovating a period home, updating an interior with character pieces, or want to improve your radiator’s efficiency, we offer tailored renovation solutions across the UK.
Breathing new life into historic heating
Maybe you have an antique radiator that’s seen better days. Or a modern cast iron radiator which has started to leak. We offer the best options for your budget. And the confidence that your radiators will perform as well as they can for years to come.
How we help
Pressure testing
Cast iron radiators are made up of separate sections. Multiple hollow columns maximise the amount of metal touching the air. However the seals between them sometimes need replacing, particularly on reproduction radiators.
Seal Replacement
We dismantle radiators to stop leaks and replace the seals in between the sections. This does not include cosmetic work such as blast cleaning or repainting.
Cosmetic overhaul
This includes:
- Stripping off the old paint and any rust.
- Repositioning the threaded caps at the top and bottom ends of a radiator that allow even antique cast iron radiators to fit with modern pipework. These are known as bushes.
- Replacing bleed valves.
- Meticulously applying multiple layers of trade-exclusive paint to achieve a high-quality finish.
Renovation
- Dismantling your radiator into its parts.
