Plumbing

Hot water problems - sorted properly.

No one wants a cold shower on a winter morning. We diagnose the real cause - boiler, cylinder, immersion or controls - and restore reliable hot water.

Reliable hot water, the first time.

Whether you've got a combi, a system boiler with a cylinder, an unvented setup or an old gravity-fed system, the symptoms can look similar but the cause is often very different. We carry the diagnostic kit - and the experience - to find the actual fault rather than guessing parts.

FAQs

Common questions

I've got no hot water but heating still works - why?

On a combi this usually points to the diverter valve or flow sensor. On a system boiler it's often a motorised valve or cylinder stat. Either way it's almost always repairable.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace my hot water cylinder?

If the cylinder is sound and only the immersion, stat or valve has failed, repair is far cheaper. If the cylinder itself is leaking or badly scaled, replacement is the better answer.

Why is my hot water lukewarm at every tap?

Common causes are a failed thermostat, a partially open mixer valve somewhere on the system, or a scaled-up cylinder coil. Quick to diagnose on site.

Can you work on unvented cylinders?

Yes. We're G3 qualified and service, repair and replace unvented hot water cylinders to current regulations.
