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 Thirsk
Do you charge extra to travel to Thirsk?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Thirsk. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Can a landlord in Thirsk book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you take on jobs outside Thirsk?
Yes. We also work in Northallerton and Ripon and elsewhere in North Yorkshire.
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.
