Think I paid about 200 for moving a rad along a wall a bit a few years ago - seems a lot but took a couple of hours - They had to drain the system and refill etc copper is also not cheap. I have a guy who might do it if you need.
-
I’d think that would be about 300+vat
Will be half a day plus some sundries. -
3 rads removed. Copper pipe amended. 2 rads installed. Rads and copper provided.
Was about £700 last autumn.

Moving pipework can be a can of worms... is it under/over floor, or inside/outside the wall?
I'm guessing you want soldered copper pipe with bent corners, or perhaps soldered corner pieces instead of bent corners? I'd spec that too as some cheap quotes might involve using compression fittings, etc.
-
Some people I've dealt with on checkatrade like you to buy the raw materials rather than them so you may need to factor in some piping as well.

If its was me and everything was straightforward about £300 plus materials.

I've posted on checkatrade, but would be curious if anyone else has had rads installed and what the rough cost is to give me a benchmark.
Also other than TVR valves are there any other random expenses that I don't know about?
Cheers.
