Common questions about plumbing in Standon
Where do boiler leaks usually come from?▾
Most common: pressure relief valve discharging because system pressure is too high, a perished pump seal, or a failing heat exchanger on older units. We diagnose properly rather than guess.
Should I turn the boiler off?▾
If water is actively dripping and you can see it pooling, yes — switch the boiler off at the spur, and turn the system pressure down via the filling loop if you can. Then call us.
How fast can you respond to a burst pipe?▾
We aim for same-day. Call us first — we can talk you through stopping the water immediately while we head over.
Can you find a hidden leak?▾
Usually yes — we use thermal imaging and pressure testing to trace leaks behind walls and under floors before we cut anything open.
