Questions about pipe and tank lagging in Blaydon-on-Tyne
What do I need to do before you arrive in Blaydon-on-Tyne?
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.

How do I pay for work in Blaydon-on-Tyne?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
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.
