How It Works
Site survey & quote

We install premium frost-proof taps, compression fittings, wall plates and isolation valves, working neatly through brickwork or soffits as required.
Test, tidy and guarantee
Each installation receives a pressure test, water-tight join checks and a site tidy. Work carries a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Frost-proof fittings are recommended for most external locations. Even sheltered gardens can face sudden cold snaps that freeze ordinary taps and inline pipework. We assess exposure during the site visit and advise the best specification for long-term protection.
