Heikki Suutarinen: “We renewed the heating network to minimise risks”

Anja and Heikki Suutarinen have been living in their frontline house in Tampere, built in 1957, for 28 years. Over the years, there have been several renovations, including the plumbing and heat network renovation has been carried out by Hausoturva. With two renovations under their belt, the couple is ready to recommend the company to others.

– Our relationship with Hausoturva started when we replaced the water pipes in this house a couple of years ago. We hadn’t heard of the company before, but a relationship of trust was established when their representative visited us to present their services, Heikki Suutarinen says.

– Of course, the price had an influence. We asked for quotes from a couple of other companies, but the price was right for Taloturva. With a big company and professional people behind you, it’s easy to start working together.

“It was decided to renew the heating network before it is necessary”

The renovation of the domestic hot water system in cooperation with Taloturva further strengthened Suutarinen’s relationship of trust with the company. When they considered the house’s old heat pipes running under the structure and their potential risk of leaks, they decided to engage the company for the next renovation to minimise the risks.

– Having had good experiences with the renovation of domestic hot water, it was decided to entrust the renovation of the heating network to Taloturva. The old plumbing was built in the 1950s, so we assumed that replacement was imminent. To minimise the risks, we decided to renovate before we had to,” says Heikki.

– We will also have to sell the house at some point. It’s always easier to sell when you’ve done these big renovations.

“The renovation was carried out as agreed”

The Suutaris ordered the renovation as a turnkey service, which included not only the design and installation, but also the recycling of old radiators and the final cleaning of the apartment at the end of the renovation.

– There were no problems, everything was done according to the agreement and our wishes. The new pipes are very slim composite pipes that run on the surface of the structure and enter the different floors of our three-storey house through the floor, Heikki explains.

– The contract included that the old radiators would be removed by the building security company. After the renovation, several guys came to do the final cleaning. There were no disappointments, everything went as we had planned,” Heikki says.

“Professionals get the job done!”

The Suutaris are pleased with the renovation they have carried out. You can rely on a professionally installed heating network with confidence, and there is no need to worry about hidden damage.

– Another valuable thing for us is that the people working for Taloturva are professionals – that’s what makes it all work! Their renovation brings security, and there is no longer the fear that a pipe will leak in the structure and cause damage.

– I dare to recommend House Security! Now we have two major renovations behind us and both have gone well, Heikki concludes.
