SIGNS YOU NEED A REPLACEMENT

Is Your Cylinder on Its Way Out?

Most cylinders last 10–15 years. These are the warning signs we see most often across Lewisham.

Leaking or Rusty Water

Water pooling around the base, or discoloured water from the hot tap, usually means internal corrosion.

Inconsistent Hot Water

Running out of hot water quickly, or water that’s never quite hot enough, points to a failing cylinder.

Banging or Rumbling Noises

Limescale build-up inside older cylinders can cause knocking sounds as water heats.

Weak Water Pressure

Poor pressure at the taps and shower, especially in older vented systems, often signals it’s time to upgrade.

CAPABILITY

Vented or Unvented — We Fit Both

The right cylinder depends on your existing system, mains pressure, and what you want to improve.

Vented Cylinder Replacement

A straightforward like-for-like swap fed from a cold water storage tank in the loft — usually the simplest and most cost-effective option if your existing system works well.

Simplest, most cost-effective

Unvented Cylinder Replacement or Upgrade

Fed directly from the mains, giving strong, consistent pressure at every outlet without a loft tank. Requires Building Regulations G3 compliant installation, which we handle as standard.

FAQs

Hot Water Cylinder Replacement Lewisham — Questions Answered

A vented cylinder replacement starts from £950, an unvented replacement or upgrade from £1,650, and a larger high-capacity cylinder from £2,400. All prices are fixed and agreed before work starts.

A vented cylinder is fed from a cold water tank in the loft, while an unvented cylinder is fed directly from the mains, giving stronger and more consistent pressure. Unvented systems require Building Regulations G3 compliant installation, which we carry out as standard.

It can be urgent if your cylinder is actively leaking, but most replacements are planned rather than emergency callouts. Call us and we'll advise on the best timing for your situation.

A vented cylinder swap typically takes half a day, while an unvented replacement or upgrade usually takes a full day due to the additional certification requirements.

We cover the whole borough, including SE4, SE6, SE8, SE13, SE23 and SE26 — from Brockley and Deptford through to Catford, Hither Green, Forest Hill and Sydenham.
