No hot water in Codicote? Plumbing sorted properly

No hot water but heating still works? On a combi, that's almost always a diverter valve, diaphragm or PCB issue. We carry the common parts, diagnose on-site and usually get it fixed in one visit across Codicote. For plumbing jobs in Codicote we work cleanly, isolate properly, and never just clamp a leak when it needs a proper soldered or pressed joint.

Quick answers on plumbing in Codicote

Why have I lost hot water but heating still works?

On a combi boiler this is the classic diverter valve symptom — the valve that switches the flame between heating and hot water has stuck. Common, and usually a one-visit fix.

How much will it cost?

Diverter valve replacement on most boilers is £180–£320 fitted. We'll give you a fixed price after diagnosis before any work starts.

Do you fit electric showers?

Yes, plus mixer, thermostatic and digital. We'll check your mains pressure first to recommend the right type.

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.
