How hard is water and central heating plumbing? Tempted to DIY it

Pushfit (e.g speedfit) is piss easy, it feels like cheating. You just need to measure everything up and plan ahead and make sure you follow the install instructions. A lot of old school people seem to think it’s untrustworthy but I’ve had no issues.

You’ll need someone gas safe to do boiler work if you need to do that but all your other heating stuff is DIYable.

Speedfit is as easy as, but remember that the joints need to grow a mm or so when you pressurise the system for it to seal properly. Don’t wedge a pipe into a tight space, leave room for it to move and you’ll be golden.
