Can't speak for Hyndburn Homes and their standards but I own an ex-council house on the Milnshaw estate which I rent to a relative. Last year United Utilities condemned the warm air boiler when they were replacing gas pipes in the area and I had to have a new full central heating system
The work was done by Derekgas and his company in less than a week. Most of the piping was done in trunking, partly for the reasons jaysay gives and partly to get the job done done quickly. The trunking is very unobtrusive and has been well done and probably created less mess than trying to go through walls and floors.
All in all I was very happy with the job - and they cleaned up after themselves!!
