What is pipe and tank lagging?
We fit a jacket to the top and sides of each tank and foam lagging to every exposed pipe, taped at the joints and bends. The ceiling under the tank is left uninsulated so warmth from below can reach it. More about pipe and tank lagging.

Questions about pipe and tank lagging in Royston
How do I pay for work in Royston?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Do you cover all of SG8?
Yes, we cover the SG8 postcode district and the districts around Royston.
Is loft work in Royston different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
Should I insulate under the water tank in the loft?
No. Leave the ceiling directly under the tank uninsulated so a little warmth from the house reaches it. Insulate the top and sides instead.
Is pipe lagging included with loft insulation?
Yes. A tank jacket and pipe lagging in the loft are included in every loft insulation and top-up price. If you only need lagging, it is priced on its own.
