Does this sound pricey? Seems a bit to me...

Drain system
Supply & fit 7 TRVs to existing rads
Supply & fit new rad with TRV to small double bedroom. Probably about 12 foot from existing pipework. Leave valved connections for future installation of bathroom towel rail.
Add inhibitor.
Refill, vent, test and service boiler.

£560 + VAT = £672

    TRV's range from £10 (Cheap) to £20 (Drayton). 7x £20 = £140
    New Single Rad with TRV. £50 (Screwfix Roughly)
    4 mtrs Copper (£7 per mtr). £28
    Inhibitor - £20
    Service Boiler - £50
    Total - £288 PARTS.

    You will make it cheaper if you can supply the TRV, and the Rad. Screwfix are having a right old heating sale on now. You might even pick up that Towel Rail..
