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 Orpington
How do I pay for work in Orpington?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
How soon can you visit a home in Orpington?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
Do you take on jobs outside Orpington?
Yes. We also work in Sidcup and Bromley and elsewhere in Greater London.
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.
