Questions about pipe and tank lagging in Birkenhead
Do you charge extra to travel to Birkenhead?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Birkenhead. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Can you visit Birkenhead outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Will I get a written quote for work in Birkenhead?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
Do I need a lid on my cold water tank?
Yes. A close-fitting lid keeps debris and insects out and is part of the water regulations for cold water storage.
