Hot water cylinder repair
Lukewarm water, noisy cylinders and leaking valves diagnosed and repaired — vented and unvented.
About this job
Hot water problems usually trace back to a failed immersion heater, a faulty cylinder thermostat, a seized motorised valve, or scale buildup in hard-water areas. We test each component in turn so you only pay for what's actually broken. For unvented cylinders, annual servicing of the safety valves is essential — we service and recertify these as required by the manufacturer's terms.

- ✔Component-by-component diagnosis
- ✔Immersion heater and thermostat replacement
