Unprotected pipework in cold spaces is one of the most common causes of winter emergency call-outs. Here’s why lagging matters across the borough’s mix of period townhouses and mansion blocks.
Water expands as it freezes, and a frozen section of pipe in a loft or roof void can split and cause serious flooding once it thaws — a common winter call-out across Notting Hill and Holland Park's period townhouses with exposed loft pipework.
Unlagged hot water pipework running through unheated spaces loses heat before it reaches the tap, wasting energy and making your hot water take longer to run warm.
Flats in South Kensington and Chelsea with pipework running through unheated risers, service ducts or external walls are particularly prone to freezing in cold snaps if left unlagged.
Lagging is one of the lowest-cost preventative jobs a plumber can carry out, and takes a fraction of the time and cost of repairing a burst pipe and the resulting water damage — particularly relevant where a burst could affect a neighbouring flat.
A thorough survey and insulation service, carried out at a fixed price before any work begins.
We identify every exposed section of pipework in your loft, roof void, under-floor void and external walls that's at risk of freezing or losing heat.
You receive a fixed price covering all identified pipework before any work starts — no surprises once we're up in the loft.
Foam pipe lagging is fitted to every identified section, with particular attention to joints, bends and stopcocks where cold can penetrate.
We confirm all exposed pipework is covered and give you a summary of what's been protected, with the work covered by our 12-month guarantee.
Cost depends on the amount of pipework and how accessible it is. All prices are confirmed before we attend — no call-out charge.

Had a pipe freeze and split in our Notting Hill loft two winters running. Had the whole loft properly lagged this time, along with the tank — no issues since, even in the cold snap.
Cold water pipe in our South Kensington mansion block riser kept freezing every winter, worrying us about the flat below. Lagged properly — hasn’t frozen since.
Had the whole property done ahead of winter after a neighbour’s pipe burst in Chelsea. Thorough survey, fair price, good peace of mind heading into the cold months.
Yes. We cover the entire borough including Kensington, Chelsea, Notting Hill, Earls Court, South Kensington, Holland Park and North Kensington — postcodes W8, W10, W11, W14, SW3, SW5, SW7 and SW10. Our engineers are based locally across West London.

Early autumn is the ideal time, before the first cold snap of the year. If you've had a pipe freeze in previous winters, or have recently noticed exposed pipework in your loft or riser cupboard, it's worth booking a survey as soon as possible rather than waiting.
No. There is no call-out charge, no zone surcharge and no area uplift for any postcode within the borough. Our fixed prices are identical whether you're in Notting Hill or Chelsea.
Lagging significantly reduces the risk by slowing heat loss from the pipe, but it isn't a total guarantee in extreme or prolonged cold. Combined with keeping the heating on low during cold snaps and knowing where your stopcock is, it's the most effective preventative step available.
Yes. We fit insulation jackets to cold water tanks and lag exposed riser pipework in mansion blocks alongside standard pipe lagging, often coordinated with your managing agent where communal areas are involved.
