Many homeowners and landlords in the harrow area and beyond are tempted to attempt DIY on their new bathroom installation. It’s a tempting thought – you save money on labour charges and it’s a project you can get stuck into. However, ask any professional bathroom installations company and they will tell you that, while most DIY-ers with limited skills can actually replace their own bathrooms, the end result lacks the precision, skill, and aesthetic excellence that it would have if done by a time-served craftsman. Many others think about becoming a project manager, allocating different work at different stages to a plumber, a plasterer, a tiler, an electrician, a decorator, and a unit installer. It might sound cheaper but that’s multiple tradesmen’s profit margins you’ll be paying together with the headache of getting the right people in at the right time. Based in Harrow and serving the community across North London, the Peter Brown bathroom installation team is almost certain to be the quicker, cheaper option with a guarantee of a beautiful new bathroom under guarantee at the end.

Don’t undo your work by having an inefficient loft hatch, says Potter. “Some people might have a lovely insulated loft but the loft hatch might be an old timber one that’s not insulated,” she says. Insulating it can be done with same self-adhesive strips as for window and doors. It’s also worth checking that none of your roof tiles is loose or missing. “If you have loose tiles or a damaged roof then you’re going to get water that can get into your loft and as soon as the insulation gets wet it loses its efficiency,” she says. Although the difficulty of checking may be the biggest obstacle, if it’s safe to do so then a single tile or so can be relatively cheap to replace.
Insulate your walls: Although wall insulation is a bigger investment, and costs vary, it can keep your home warm and cosy and result in a large saving. Most homes built after 1920 have cavity walls. If your home’s cavity walls are uninsulated, adding cavity wall insulation could save up to £150 a year off your energy bills (based on a typical 3-bedroom semi-detached house). Most homes built before 1920 have solid walls. Solid wall insulation can save around £260 a year off your energy bills (based on a typical 3-bedroom semi-detached house).

It’s easy to turn the thermostat all the way up when it’s freezing cold but what temperature should your house be? Aim to set your main room thermostat somewhere between 18°C and 21°C.It’s also a good idea to set your thermostat to one temperature and then use a timer to turn it on and off when you need the heating most. That way you won’t waste excess energy from leaving the heating on too high, for too long.
