Do your radiators function effectively and look attractive in your home? If not, you might want to consider purchasing new radiators.

Traditional radiators boast timeless appeal, featuring intricate detailing and period-specific designs that complement classic or vintage-inspired interiors.

Heating and powering your home using traditional energy sources, such as gas and electricity, is continuing to fall in popularity.

Hiring a cast iron radiator installer ensures precise positioning, correct pipework and even heat distribution, allowing these radiators to enhance the visual appeal of a space whilst providing efficient heating for years to come.  

When remodelling a home or upgrading a heating system, radiator design should not be overlooked. The chosen model should not only heat the space efficiently but also contribute to the overall aesthetic of a room. At Trads, we’re often asked, ‘Are cast iron radiators worth it?’.
