Questions about pipe and tank lagging in Stornoway
Can you take on work in Stornoway?
Sometimes. Stornoway is outside our normal travelling area, so we look at each job first. If we can help, any travel cost is shown on the quote before you book, and nothing is booked until you agree it.
Will I get a written quote for work in Stornoway?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
How do I pay for work in Stornoway?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
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.
