What people say
They found the leak in twenty minutes, showed me the photographs, and the price they quoted was the price I paid.
Maria Delgado, Redondo Beach
Two other firms told me the whole roof had to come off. These are the people who proved it did not.
Tom Hendry, Lomita
They turned up in the rain on a Sunday, tarped it, and would not take anything for it until the real repair.
Priya Raman, Harbor City
The report had sixty photographs in it. I have never had a trade explain their own work that clearly.
Alan Whitfield, Palos Verdes

How to bleed a radiator

Worth doing before you call anybody out, and it costs nothing.

About 20 minutes
  1. Turn the heating off

    Let the system cool completely, or you will be bled on by very hot water.

    Turn the heating off
  2. Find the valve

    Top corner of the radiator, a small square socket facing sideways.

    Find the valve
  3. Open it a quarter turn

    Hold a cloth under it. You will hear air. Stop when water arrives.

    Open it a quarter turn
  4. Check the pressure

    Bleeding drops it. Top the boiler back up to the mark on the gauge.

    Check the pressure
