It's really frustrating when your radiator just isn't heating up properly. Maybe it's cold at the top and warm at the bottom, or perhaps it's completely cold even when your central heating is on. The usual culprit for cold spots is trapped air inside the radiator. If air gets stuck, it stops the hot water from circulating, leaving parts of the radiator chilly. Sometimes, a build-up of sludge (rust and debris) in your system can also block the flow, causing cold spots or even a completely cold radiator. Don't worry, these are common problems we see all the time and can usually fix pretty quickly.

A leaking radiator can be a real headache and, if left, could cause water damage. If you notice a drip or a puddle under your radiator, the first thing to do is try and figure out where the water is coming from. It could be from the valve, the pipe connections, or even a tiny pinhole in the radiator itself. For a small leak, you might be able to temporarily catch the water with a bowl or towel. Then, it's best to switch off your central heating system. After that, give us a call! Leaks should be dealt with quickly to prevent bigger issues.

When we come out, we’ll assess your radiator and let you know whether a repair is the best option or if it’s more sensible to replace it. Generally, minor leaks or valve problems can be repaired. But if the radiator is very old, heavily corroded, or has multiple pinhole leaks, replacing it might be the more cost-effective and long-term solution. A new radiator can also improve your heating efficiency, which could save you money on your energy bills in the long run. We’ll talk you through the options and help you make the right choice for your home.
