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 Wakefield

Can a landlord in Wakefield book work for a tenanted house?

Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.

What do I need to do before you arrive in Wakefield?

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 Wakefield?

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.
