Questions about pipe and tank lagging in Stanford-le-Hope
Do you take on jobs outside Stanford-le-Hope?
Yes. We also work in Basildon and Grays and elsewhere in Essex.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Stanford-le-Hope?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Do you charge extra to travel to Stanford-le-Hope?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Stanford-le-Hope. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
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.
