Question 1

Will you explain the work before you start?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We explain what we are doing and why before we begin any plumbing repair, and give you a fixed price for the job first, so you understand both the fault and the fix rather than being handed a surprise bill afterwards.

Question 2

What is the difference between a vented and an unvented cylinder?

Accepted Answer

A vented cylinder relies on a cold water tank in the loft, while an unvented cylinder stores water at mains pressure without one, giving stronger and more consistent pressure at every tap. We are qualified to install and service unvented systems.

Question 3

Can you fit new taps, sinks or toilets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We install replacement taps, sinks, toilets and associated pipework as part of general plumbing work, whether that is a straightforward swap or part of a wider bathroom or kitchen update in your Easington home.

Question 4

What is an unvented hot water cylinder?

Accepted Answer

An unvented cylinder stores hot water at mains pressure without needing a cold water tank in the loft, giving strong, consistent pressure at every tap. We are qualified to install and service unvented cylinders safely, which by law requires specific certified training.

Question 5

How can I check your Gas Safe registration in Easington?

Accepted Answer

You can verify our registration independently on the official Gas Safe Register using our Register No. 640113. We would always encourage checking this before any gas work begins, in Easington or anywhere else.

Question 6

What areas do you cover from Colne?

Accepted Answer

We are based in Colne (BB8) and cover Burnley and the Pendle area, plus surrounding towns and villages within around 10 miles, including Trawden, Barnoldswick, Nelson, Barrowford, Foulridge and Skipton. If you are not sure whether we cover your area, give us a call and we will let you know.

Question 7

What should I do if I have a burst pipe?

Accepted Answer

Turn off your water at the stopcock immediately to limit damage, then turn off any electrics near the affected area if there is a risk of water contact. Call us during working hours, Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm, to arrange a repair as soon as possible.

Question 8

Do you carry out repairs for landlords with tenants in Easington properties?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We regularly carry out plumbing repairs and installations for landlords managing rental properties in Easington, on the same fixed-price, written-quote basis we offer homeowners.

Question 9

Do I legally need a Landlord Gas Safety Certificate (CP12)?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you are a landlord renting out a property with gas appliances in England and Wales, you are legally required to have a Gas Safety Certificate (CP12) issued annually by a Gas Safe registered engineer. This applies to all gas boilers, gas fires, gas cookers, and any other gas appliances. Failure to comply can result in fines of up to 6,000, pounds prosecution, and even imprisonment. We provide prompt certificates for landlords and letting agents across Colne and the surrounding Lancashire area.

Question 10

How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?

Accepted Answer

Warning signs include an unexpectedly high water bill, damp patches on walls, ceilings or flooring, a musty smell, or your water meter still ticking over when everything is turned off. If you suspect a hidden leak, get it checked promptly to limit damage.
