Why Choose BC Plumbing for Your Cold Water Tank in Frome?

How Our Tank Repair and Installation Works

When you contact us about a potential issue, we begin with a comprehensive diagnostic check of your entire domestic water storage system. We inspect the tank's structural integrity, examine the isolation valve and stopcock, and check for hidden leaks that could cause ceiling damage.If your system requires a repair, we often focus on replacing faulty ball valves, fixing overflow pipes, or resolving airlocks that cause low water pressure. We carry high-quality, WRAS approved parts to ensure most repairs are completed during our first visit.For older systems, we may recommend a complete tank upgrade. Our team carefully drains the old cistern, safely removes the heavy materials from your loft space, and installs a modern, fully insulated plastic tank that prevents winter freezing and water contamination.

Why Should You Upgrade Your Old Galvanised Tank?

Older metal tanks are highly susceptible to rust, corrosion, and scale buildup, especially given the hard water common in the Wiltshire and Somerset areas. Upgrading to a modern cold water storage cistern guarantees long-term reliability and vastly improves your household water hygiene.Modern plastic tanks come with secure, tightly fitting lids that prevent dust, insects, and debris from contaminating your water supply. This is particularly important for your health and the longevity of your plumbing appliances, including your shower pump and hot water cylinder.Furthermore, our professional tank installations include high-quality loft tank insulation. This essential step prevents pipes from freezing during harsh cold snaps, significantly reducing the risk of a burst pipe emergency and sudden loss of water supply.

WRAS Compliance and Local Water Regulations

Ensuring your home plumbing system is safe and legally compliant is our top priority. Every component we install, from a simple thermostatic mixer to a complete tank system, is fully WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme) compliant. This protects your mains water supply against backflow and contamination.When dealing with modern heating setups, cold water tanks often feed complex hot water systems. As fully G3 Certified engineers, we are highly qualified to handle systems connected to an unvented cylinder, ensuring all pressure testing and safety valves meet strict Building Regulations.Working in Bradford-on-Avon often means operating within listed buildings and heritage properties. We take great care to respect the structural integrity of your home, routing pipework discreetly and adhering to all local compliance guidelines.

As a local Beckington plumbing business, our reputation is built on being responsive, tidy, and professional. Whether it is a simple ball valve replacement or a complex tank relocation, we treat your home with respect.

How do I know if my cold water tank ball valve needs replacing?

+

The most common sign is a constant dripping or running sound coming from the overflow pipe outside your house. You might also hear a whistling or humming noise coming from the loft after you have used a tap. This usually means the valve is no longer shutting off properly, which can lead to the tank overflowing.

Is it worth repairing an old galvanised steel water tank?

+

Generally, if an old steel tank has started to rust or leak, it is better to replace it with a modern, WRAS-approved plastic tank. Steel tanks eventually corrode from the inside out, and "patching" them is rarely a long-term solution. A new plastic tank is lighter, won't rust, and is much more hygienic.

What is attic tank insulation and why do I need it?

+

Attic tank insulation involves fitting a thermal jacket around the tank and insulating the lid and the pipes leading to it. This is essential for preventing the water from freezing in winter, which can cause the tank or pipes to split. It also helps keep the water cool in the summer, reducing the risk of bacterial growth like Legionella.

How often should I have my water tank cleaned?

+

For most domestic properties, a visual inspection every year or two is enough. If you notice sediment in your bathwater or the water looks discoloured, it is time for a professional clean. We can drain the tank, remove any limescale or debris, and sanitise the system to make sure your water stays fresh.
