Not All Rads Are Created Equal: Why We Use Eastbrook for Our Designer Radiators

When it comes to heating your home, the humble radiator is often the unsung hero—silently (or not-so-silently, if it’s full of air!) pumping out warmth and keeping your toes toasty. But let’s be honest: a lot of radiators are, well… a bit boring. White panelled boxes stuck to your wall that scream “I’m just here to do a job.”

When it comes to heating your home, the humble radiator is often the unsung hero – silently (or not-so-silently, if it’s full of air!) pumping out warmth and keeping your toes toasty. But let’s be honest: a lot of radiators are, well… a bit boring. White panelled boxes stuck to your wall that scream “I’m just here to do a job.”

But what if we told you that radiators could be more than just practical – they could be beautiful too? At DTS Plumbing & Heating, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between style and substance. That’s why, when it comes to designer radiators, we’re big fans of Eastbrook.

So… who are Eastbrook?

Eastbrook is a British brand that knows their way around a stunning bathroom (and a banging radiator). Their range of designer radiators doesn’t just perform brilliantly – they also look incredible. Whether you’re after sleek minimalism, industrial chic, or a traditional column vibe, Eastbrook’s got something for every taste.

They’ve also got the quality to back it up. These aren’t just pretty panels – they’re solid, reliable, and made with proper engineering know-how.

Here’s why we love fitting Eastbrook designer radiators:

  • Looks That Actually Wow

We’re talking black finishes, brushed brass, anthracite greys, and even eye-catching sculptural shapes. Forget hiding your radiator behind a sofa – Eastbrook designs are made to be seen. If your radiator could wink, it would.

  • Warmth Where It Counts

A good radiator needs to actually heat your room, and Eastbrook doesn’t disappoint. We always check BTU (British Thermal Unit) ratings to make sure your designer choice packs a proper punch – not just pretty looks with no substance.

  • Great Range of Sizes and Styles

Tall vertical rads for tight spaces? Tick. Chunky traditional columns for that Victorian bay window? Tick. Something bold for the downstairs loo to impress guests? Big tick. Eastbrook’s range means we can usually find the perfect fit for both your space and your taste.

  • Perfect Pairing with Our Bathrooms

As bathroom specialists, we’re all about the finishing touches – and nothing finishes off a bathroom like a stunning towel radiator. Eastbrook towel rails are as practical as they are elegant, helping you step out of the shower into cosy, dry towels and into a better mood.

  • Peace of Mind with Proper Warranties

Eastbrook radiators come with solid manufacturer guarantees, so you can trust your new rad will last as long as your love for it (which is saying something!).

Designer heating without the drama

We get it – choosing a designer radiator can feel a bit intimidating. But that’s what we’re here for. At DTS, we’ll help you find the right model, size, and finish for your space, and fit it to perfection. We’ll even advise on the right valves and pipework finishes to match – because those little details matter.

Come and see them for yourself!

We are now proudly displaying 20+ different Eastbrook designer radiator ranges at The Design Hub, so you can get up close and personal with the styles, finishes, and feel the quality for yourself. We’ve got samples, swatches, and the kettle’s usually on too.

Why GROHE Taps and Showers Are the Best Choice for Your Bathroom

When it comes to bathroom fittings, we don’t cut corners. You want fixtures that look stunning, work flawlessly, and last for years – ideally without that annoying drip in the middle of the night. That’s why we’re big fans of GROHE – a brand that ticks all those boxes and more.

When it comes to bathroom fittings, we don’t cut corners. You want fixtures that look stunning, work flawlessly, and last for years – ideally without that annoying drip in the middle of the night. That’s why we’re big fans of GROHE – a brand that ticks all those boxes and more.

Whether you’re planning a full bathroom transformation or just refreshing your taps or shower, GROHE is one of the best choices you can make. Here’s why we confidently recommend them for both new installations and retrofits.

Who Are GROHE?

GROHE (pronounced “Grow-uh”, in case you were wondering) is a German brand that’s been around since 1936. They’re known worldwide for high-end taps, showers, and bathroom accessories – and they take engineering seriously.

Every product is designed and tested to last for 20 years, even in a busy family home. That’s two solid decades of teeth brushing, bath time splashing, and shower karaoke. In other words: you can fit GROHE and forget about it – in the best way possible.

A 5-Year Guarantee That Actually Means Something

Not only are GROHE products made to last, but they also come with a 5-year guarantee that covers both parts and labour. That’s a big deal. If something goes wrong (rare, but hey – life happens), GROHE will cover the repair with no fuss.

You don’t just get premium quality – you get genuine peace of mind.

Perfect for New Installs and Upgrades

Doing a full bathroom remodel? Brilliant. GROHE’s range has everything from ultra-modern minimalism to traditional charm.

Just looking to upgrade a tired old tap or shower? You’re in luck. GROHE products are designed to be versatile and retrofittable, meaning in most cases we can replace your existing fittings without needing major work behind the scenes.

That makes them a fantastic way to give your bathroom a facelift without tearing the whole place apart.

Let’s Next-Day Parts, No Drama Your Bathroom to Life

Another reason we love GROHE? If anything needs replacing – a valve, a cartridge, a handle – we can get the parts next day. That means your project won’t stall, your water won’t be off for days, and you won’t be stuck staring at a half-finished bathroom wondering where it all went wrong.

Want to chat about your project? Get in touch – and if the kettle’s on, we take ours with two sugars.
