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 Darwen
Do you cover all of BB3?

How do I pay for work in Darwen?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Will I get a written quote for work in Darwen?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
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.
