Hot Water Repairs in Kew

What's usually behind it in Kew

Older Kew homes often have hot water units squeezed into laundries or under stairs, so we check clearances and flues before recommending a replacement.

No hot water usually means a failed thermostat, pilot, element or valve, and sometimes a tank that has reached the end of its life. We carry common parts in the van and stock popular replacement units so you're not waiting days.

Kew is full of Victorian and Edwardian homes and leafy streets, which means original clay sewers, big tree roots and plenty of older pipework.

FAQ

Hot Water in Kew: common questions

Repair or replace?

If a unit is under about 8 to 10 years old and the tank isn't leaking, a repair is usually worth it. We'll tell you straight.

Can you replace my hot water today?

Often, yes. We keep common gas and electric units in stock for Kew jobs.

Which system is cheapest to run?

It depends on household size and your energy tariffs. Heat pumps and continuous flow are often cheaper to run than older storage tanks.

Do you take the old unit away?

Yes, removal and disposal of the old unit is included in replacement quotes.
