Question 1

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

Accepted Answer

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

Question 2

How often should an unvented cylinder be serviced?

Accepted Answer

Unvented cylinders should be serviced annually by a qualified engineer, both for safety, as they operate at higher pressure than vented systems, and to keep any manufacturer warranty valid. We are unvented cylinder qualified and can carry out that annual service.

Question 3

How can I check your Gas Safe registration in Rake Foot?

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 Rake Foot or anywhere else.

Question 4

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 5

Are your prices fixed or do you charge by the hour?

Accepted Answer

Wherever possible we provide a fixed, written quote before work begins, covering installations, servicing and most plumbing jobs, so there are no surprises on the day. This is confirmed after a free survey or an honest phone conversation about the job.

Question 6

Can you replace an old cylinder with an unvented one?

Accepted Answer

Yes, this is a common upgrade when a vented system struggles with poor pressure. We will assess your incoming mains pressure and flow rate first to confirm an unvented cylinder is suitable for your property before recommending it.

Question 7

Do you work on both domestic and rental properties in Rake Foot?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We carry out plumbing repairs and installations for homeowners and for landlords managing rental properties across Rake Foot and the surrounding Lancashire area, on the same honest, fixed-price basis.

Question 8

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 Rake Foot home.

Question 9

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 10

Can you help with low water pressure throughout the house?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Low pressure can come from several causes, including the incoming mains supply, old pipework, or a failing cylinder. We investigate the actual cause during a visit rather than guessing, and recommend the right fix.
