View Full Version : Cover for bottom of radiator pipes? djuk 06 May 2007, 16:37 I've just finished laying tiles throughout the kitchen and hallway and my very simple tiling skills means that the gaps round the bottom of the radiators are a bit... well gappy :D Is there some sort of chrome / aluminium cover or something which will cover this up? :) D robby 06 May 2007, 18:26 Yep - you can buy white or chrome look in pieces approx 1metre long and cut them to length as they're like polycarbonate (sort of) - can't remember if i got mine from Wikes or Homebase? Mog 06 May 2007, 23:25 What I think you want is a shroud which is about 45mm in diameter and goes around the pipe as it comes out of the floor covering any gaps, they come in chrome and white. They are made by Flamco and the code is RV-15. (happened to have one sat on my desk).

B&Q and all sorts of other places sell them - you can even buy stickers with woodgrain effect. nice. i have a couple of sets of beech feet i bought from a local flooring supplier. skoobidude 09 May 2007, 19:20 Wickes - Radiator Pipe Snaps (http://www.wickes.co.uk/invt/420049&bklist=) Can you get bends too? Nick richardg 10 May 2007, 09:14 highly unlikely. just paint, rub down properly in between coats and you'll get a good finish without needing the pipe snaps. 3 or 4 coats of gloss/satin should do it |
