24/7 EMERGENCY
Burst pipe? Boiler down? No hot water? Engineers on call right now —
We insulate exposed pipework across Ealing — lofts, garages, external walls and under-floor runs — reducing the risk of a frozen or burst pipe and cutting heat loss on hot water pipe runs. A quick, affordable job that prevents a much costlier emergency, at a fixed price with no call-out charge.

Uninsulated pipework is one of the most preventable — and most common — causes of winter plumbing emergencies.
Pipework running through cold lofts and garages, common across Ealing’s semi-detached and terraced housing, is directly exposed to freezing temperatures with no protection.
Pipe runs against uninsulated external walls, particularly in older Ealing and West Ealing properties, lose heat rapidly and are more prone to freezing in a cold snap.
Unlagged hot water pipes lose heat as water travels from the boiler or cylinder to the tap, meaning the boiler works harder and bills increase unnecessarily.
Without an internal isolation valve, the whole property’s water supply must be turned off to fix or winterise a single outside tap — a common gap in older Ealing properties.
A full survey of vulnerable pipework, not just a quick wrap of the most obvious runs.
Your engineer inspects the loft, garage, external walls and under-floor voids to identify every pipe run exposed to cold or heat loss.
Foam pipe insulation is fitted to all identified pipe runs, sized correctly for the pipe diameter and sealed at joints and bends.
Cold water storage tanks and cisterns are fitted with an insulating jacket, and the tank lid checked and insulated if needed.
Outside taps and exposed stopcocks are insulated or advised on separately, completing full frost protection for the property.
A small, affordable job that prevents some of the most expensive and disruptive plumbing emergencies.
Lagging is the single most effective way to stop a pipe freezing and splitting in cold weather, avoiding an emergency repair and potential water damage.
Insulated hot water pipes retain heat for longer, meaning less energy is wasted between the boiler or cylinder and the tap.
Many policies expect reasonable steps to have been taken to prevent frozen pipes — lagging demonstrates exactly that if a claim is ever needed.
Most lagging work is completed in a single visit with minimal disruption, unlike the days of drying out and repair work a burst pipe can cause.
Cost depends on how much pipework needs insulating and its accessibility. All prices confirmed before we attend — no call-out charge.

Fast site visits and reliable scheduling across all Ealing postcodes, from Ealing town centre to Southall and Northolt.
We identify every vulnerable pipe run during the visit rather than just insulating the most obvious sections, giving genuinely complete protection.
From Victorian terraces in Ealing town centre to 1930s semis in Greenford, we know where pipework is most commonly exposed across the borough.
The same fixed pricing applies whether you're in W5 Ealing or UB6 Greenford — no zone uplift, no call-out charge, no extras added after the fact.
Many customers combine lagging with a boiler service or radiator check during the same visit, covering the whole heating system before winter.
All pipe lagging work in Ealing carries our 12-month guarantee, issued in writing on the day of completion.

“Had a frozen pipe in the loft two winters running, so finally got the whole property lagged properly before this winter. Loft, garage and the tank all insulated in one visit, hasn’t been an issue since.”
“Noticed our hot water took ages to run warm and the bills seemed high for the size of the house. Turned out the pipe run from the boiler was completely unlagged, insulated now and noticeably faster.”
“Garage pipes had never been touched since the house was built, insurance renewal flagged it as a risk. Got them lagged properly along with the outside tap, straightforward and quick.”
Yes. We cover the entire Ealing borough — W5, W13, UB1, UB2, UB5 and UB6 — including Ealing town centre, West Ealing, Southall, Northolt and Greenford, with no zone surcharge.
Loft pipework lagging starts from £140, garage pipework from £110, and a cold water tank jacket from £90. A whole-property package covering loft, garage, tank and external pipework starts from £320.
Yes. Lagging is a preventative measure best done before a cold snap rather than after a pipe has already frozen and split, and it also reduces heat loss on hot water pipes year-round.
Many home insurance policies specify that pipework must be adequately insulated as a condition of cover for frozen or burst pipe claims — worth checking your policy wording, and we're happy to advise during the visit.
A single area such as a loft or garage typically takes 1–2 hours, while a whole-property package covering all vulnerable pipework takes around 3–4 hours in a single visit.
Yes. Many Ealing customers book pipe lagging alongside an annual boiler service or radiator check, covering the whole heating system in one visit before winter.
