No hot water in Standon? 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 Standon. For plumbing jobs in Standon we work cleanly, isolate properly, and never just clamp a leak when it needs a proper soldered or pressed joint.

Learn moreLocal, honest plumbing for Standon homes
We've been doing plumbing jobs in Ware long enough to know which streets have shared chimneys, which estates have undersized gas supplies, and which boilers tend to fail first.
That experience means we get the spec right at the survey, not halfway through the install.
And we don't cut corners on the bits you can't see — proper pipework, magnetic filter, full system flush where needed.

Things Standon customers usually ask about plumbing
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.
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.
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.
