Questions about pipe and tank lagging in Kettering
How do I pay for work in Kettering?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Do you charge extra to travel to Kettering?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Kettering. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Kettering?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
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.
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.
