    Anyone any idea cost to replumb a bungalow externally? Don't want pipes hidden in floors I'll survive with the pipes running along the walls. Current house is 1970s and getting alot of leaks. Was advised to replumb. Full access on attic so all piping can go that way, no digging floors etc. Any idea would be great. Trying to see can we gather the money up. Would need approx 5 rads as I've replaced half already.

    Hard to say without seeing it.
    Ballpark for heating and new radiators surface run in copper using existing boiler, but new cylinder, cold water tanks etc. maybe €8k.+

    Before you do that, try dosing the system with Tec7 plumb sealer, and following up with a second dose a few weeks later. This may solve the immediate issue and you could also replace the remainder of the radiators.

    Re-piping is a significant cost, and it may not be compatible with future heating technologies.
