Hi there! I’m an aspiring Gas Safe engineer and plumber, and I’ve really been enjoying your content-it’s been a huge inspiration! I’ve actually signed up for a Gas Safe course, which I can complete within a year, but after doing some work with a friend, I’ve realized just how important it is to have a solid foundation in plumbing as well. Would you consider making a video on the key foundational skills for beginners? It would be incredibly helpful to know where to start and what to focus on. Thanks a lot!
@@rdillon5212 hi mate, thank you for your very kind words, as regards to a video for beginners, i believe it would be such things like pipe bending and soldering etc, is this what you mean? Also good look with your gas safe!!
@@Heatking Thanks so much for the quick reply and the well wishes! Yes, that’s exactly what I was thinking-things like pipe bending, soldering, and any other essential skills that are crucial for beginners. It would be great to see a video that breaks down those basics. I’m sure it would help a lot of people just starting out, like me. Thanks again for all the awesome content! 💪🙏
@@rdillon5212 thanks mate, I’ll see what I can do with the above! But would probably be out around Xmas time if that’s ok? I’m also not the best at bending haha
@@Heatking Thanks a lot mate! That sounds perfect, and no worries at all-I’m sure whatever you put together will be super helpful. It’s reassuring to know even the pros find some things tricky!
Is it ok if bare copper or plastic pipe makes contact with wooden joists? Done 2 rads on my house and they're touching. Anyway great work in the video, a joy to watch
I'm a self taught basic in plumbing. Need some advice please. Should I use small or full bore isolators for a bath. Supply pipes 15 mm fed from combi. Love your vids proper real world. Ta again.
@@pault3705 I only have 2amp ones, could do with a 3.0 or a 4.0 but I hardly ever use my 18v makita anymore, just this, one of the best buys I’ve done mate 🙌🏽
Nice one Danny Boy 😂, FYI all washing Machines have a drain or drain and spin option that you can select after starting a wash, I know because in my gaff years ago I had to do my own washing as a teenager 😂 and still as a married man with 4 childers 😅 Congratulations on nearly 6k, Seems like a month ago you were waiting in the 2k Mate 🎉 😎👍🤜
@@tonymurff5234 didn’t know that with the washing machines mate! You’ll save me loads of time now!! And it doesn’t feel like a month ago to me 2k seems a lifetime ago 🤣🤣🤣But thanks Tony 😍
Funny enough i was replacing my own washing machine yesterday. Breaking when you get back from 2 weeks camping with 4 other family members is most unsporting. I had to handwash my pants whilst I was waiting for delivery 😂😂😂
4:51 I noticed you didn't shave your legs this morning. As always appreciate your time to upload/ edit your work 👍 Ps. I try and do my best to promote your channel wherever I can
Haha, I had one lady who broke the handle on her toilet. I replaced it and told her to be more gentle with it, she broke it again so I put on a stronger handle and connecting link. This time she broke the siphon off completely at the bottom at the threaded part and flooded the bathroom. Sometimes you just can't win.
@@Heatking I asked her to demonstrate, she was really cranking it hard. I showed her how to be more gentle with it but to no avail. Her husband said she'd broken his toilet as well!
If everyone who watches this video subscribes… we could hit 6k tonight? 🎉😂

100% them knee pads worth it 👊👍 nice video mate…good shout not filming in the ladies 😂😂
Cheers mate.
I had to watch the outro twice as I thought I was seeing things !
Haha I did the same when it got sent to me haha
Appreciate the reply...thanks mate
@@pault3705 anytime mate!
Another cracking vid Dan, love the carpet fitting movement, very neat and tidy. :)
😂😂 isn’t that what carpet fitters do? 😬 cheers pal!
@@Heatking it is indeed what they do, but they also use a kicker, but you made it look funnier mate.. keep up to great work and content.
@@dazl7954 haha yeh mate they do, but unfortunately I don’t have one of them 😂😂 cheers pal
You did a cracking job on the radiator install Dan, absolutely brilliant. 😊
Thanks T! Appreciate that mate!
Top class job on that rad. You are always great to watch. Thanks young fellow, for the entertainment. Peace and goodwill.
@@martinwarner1178 thanks mate. Really appreciate that, the entertainment factor is what I look to achieve! 🙏🏽
I love the old screwdriver hanging on a bit of string for the isolation valves😂😂👍🏼

@@Michael-gl9qn yeh just sometimes it can squeak mate so best to put some cloth lagging under them. But not always necessary. Cheers buddy.
The ninja jump fixed that carpet.
@@johnlesoudeur3653 🤣🤣🤣
Top job Dan. It’s always a nervous moment when you refill the system but no worries Dan the man aka superman without the cape has sorted it❤❤😂
Haha, I wouldn’t say that mate! I wish I was 🤣🤣 but I still get leaks every now and then😆
@@Heatking nowt wrong with a leaky leaky every so often. Just shows why one has to test the work afterwards.
Use isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to get rid of pencil marks or similar. Completely safe, evaporates instantly doesn’t take any paint off 👍🏼
Is that like the hand gel we had to use during Covid mate?
Smart install Dan looked well neat and tidy. Imagine them triple rads pump out the heat 🎉👍🏼👍🏼
@@wolvolad25 yeh they do mate, needed to be that size with the size of room it’s in! Thanks for the support mate.
Another good one some nice pipe work on rad swap 👍
@@derekweir4705 cheers buddy! Glad you liked it!
Great video, really enjoyed it
@@mfielding007 thank you very much! Just what I like to read!
I'm a self taught basic in plumbing. Need some advice please. Should I use small or full bore isolators for a bath. Supply pipes 15 mm fed from combi. Love your vids proper real world. Ta again.
@@pandaman9706 cheers buddy, always full bore On a bath, as you want maximum fill rate on them 🙏🏽
@@Heatking thanks so much the for the reply. The feed from the boiler in kitchen has 15mm small bore iso on it??
@@pandaman9706 to a kitchen tap that?
@@Heatking yeah then continues on to the bathroom. Seriously thank you....Tom
@@pandaman9706 I’d take that one out mate. But you’ll probably not notice the difference anyway.
Just bought the m12 drill yournusing in the video...how you finding it for general light jobbing...and younusing 2 or 3amp batreries ?? Thanks
@@pault3705 I only have 2amp ones, could do with a 3.0 or a 4.0 but I hardly ever use my 18v makita anymore, just this, one of the best buys I’ve done mate 🙌🏽

@@martinwright7093 😂😂😂 she must have done that for all her life though! 🫨
@@Heatking @martinwright7093 I bet he’s never asked for a quick 👊🏻
Bet the combustion readings were fantastic on that Worcester.... WTF?!!!!
@@JayGasEssex 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 pal the flue is probably one of the best I've ever seen even 😅better than using it as a washing line
Haha. I thought the flue was fantastic too 😂😂😂
Nice quick video this one and also a good old RAD swap. Well done with the carpet mate !
Also the outro made me go WTF !! 🤬
Haha the outro was fantastic on this one 😂😂 glad you liked the video mate!
Good rad install Dan. Omg wtf was that at the end ? 😳
Haha. Ending was brilliant. Cheers mate.
You have the link for the knee pads mate

Hi there if how long did it take to fit the radiator thanks in advance
@@antonysloan6110 3 hours mate, including messing around filming haha
@@Heatking thanks for replying
Another quality video and there’s not a lot to say about the outro 🤔 😂
@@Bigdaftboy haha that outro was fantastic, one of the best videos I’ve seen! Cheers mate!
First ! Got it back !!!
@@thegrinch295 haha well done!! It’s about time haha
You changed the intro music !
@@bang234 haha I did mate! Needed a change’
Nice jobs - nice Nikes 👟👟
Haha cheers mate. Cheap ones these, not very comfy!!
@@Heatking at least your not in Crocs 😂🤣
@@Pipster232 haha dont even own a pair mate!
@@Heatkingsame here! 😂
Wow if customers new the extent of work needed to move a radiator... How much does a job like thst cost?
Half a day (£150)plus materials mate. So I think this was about £200 from what I remember.
Was the flue and oven extractor linked to same pipe ??? 😮
Yep! 🤦🏽♂️
ID ID lol you saving that for the next vid Dan or sending the pics into Gas Safe magazine😵🙈🤦🏼♂️
@@russellbaldry5095 haha it wasn’t my video mate. A viewer sent it me to put on haha.
@@Heatking ah i see! Definitely one for the cowboy diaries😂😂
@@russellbaldry5095 haha absolutely
What knee pads do you use? (I spoke too soon 😂)
@@johngreaves4202 😂😂😂😂😂 highly recommend mate.
Glad to see you looking after your knees. I bet your dad drilled that . into you
Cheers mate, and yeh he did try but I was a stubborn child haha.
I always use 3/4 tiles lock shields always easier
Yeh think I’d should have on this one aswel! 😢
WTF was that an underground waste fitting
Yep 😂😂😂
Went the extra mile sweating off the fitting and cleaning the pipe end. Would it be quicker to cut the pipe further back and press in a new section?
Of forget that. Guess access any further underneath the rest of the floor was not straightforward.
@@tomsanders8714 probably would have mate you’re right. But that would have cost me more 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I won't use that liquid anymore let me down 3 times now never again ptfe never let's you down.
@@Putinspurpleheaded touch wood, I’ve only had it fail once, when I didn’t give it long enough to cure.
Are you sure they were real women!? Takes a brute of a man to snap a handle in two like that 😂
@@koolworths hahaha well it was in the women’s toilets 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Snapped flush lever.
May have been a very strong woman. South Park.

@@loafersheffield haha I think you’re right!!!
