The most stressful act so far was the removal of an extra radiator pipe in our ceiling, this pipe cut across the ceiling and into the space now occupied by the new top stair tread and riser - it has been capped and abandoned by previous owners but was still connected to the main radiator supply. The yellow tarp was our [weak] attempt to plan for a worst case exploding water pipe...
(click pictures to enlarge) the short 3" capped pipe up in the ceiling joist replaces the 13' pipe seen dangling below.
Following the simple steps to drain the boiler and radiators before-hand meant that this potentially messy job took only 5 minutes and spilled no water.
