Questions about pipe and tank lagging in Leatherhead
What do I need to do before you arrive in Leatherhead?
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 you charge extra to travel to Leatherhead?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Leatherhead. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
How do I pay for work in Leatherhead?
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.
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.
