Loss of Hot Water Repair

/in , /by

A sudden loss of hot water is one of the most disruptive problems a household can face. Whether it happens first thing in the morning or late at night, no hot water affects everything from washing and cleaning to heating and comfort. Understanding the common causes, and knowing when to call a professional  can help get things back to normal quickly and safely.

At MJ Services Lincs, loss of hot water is one of the most common callouts we attend, particularly during colder months when systems are under greater strain.

One of the most frequent causes is a boiler issue. This could range from low system pressure and faulty valves to ignition faults or worn components. Modern boilers often display error codes, which can help identify the problem, but repairs should always be handled by a qualified engineer to avoid further damage or safety risks.

Another common cause is a faulty hot water cylinder or immersion heater, especially in properties that don’t rely solely on a combi boiler. Failed heating elements, thermostat issues, or electrical faults can all prevent water from heating correctly. In some cases, the system may still produce heating but no hot water, a clear sign the issue is isolated to the hot water supply.

Frozen or damaged pipework can also cause hot water loss, particularly in winter. If pipes supplying the boiler or cylinder are frozen or leaking, hot water may stop altogether. Early signs include reduced water flow, strange noises, or visible leaks.

It’s also worth checking simple things first. Low boiler pressure, tripped electrics, or incorrect thermostat settings can sometimes be the cause. However, if these checks don’t resolve the issue, it’s important not to attempt repairs yourself. Plumbing and heating systems are complex, and incorrect handling can lead to further damage or safety concerns.

Professional repair ensures the issue is diagnosed accurately and fixed properly. A qualified plumber can quickly identify whether the fault lies with the boiler, cylinder, controls, or pipework, and recommend the most effective solution.

If you’re experiencing a loss of hot water, acting quickly can prevent further problems and restore comfort to your home sooner. Reliable repair, clear advice, and prompt service make all the difference when hot water suddenly disappears.

Winter Plumbing Services: Protecting Your Home When It Matters Most

/in /by

Winter can be one of the most challenging times of year for your plumbing system. As temperatures drop, the risk of frozen pipes, burst pipework, boiler breakdowns, and heating issues increases significantly. That’s why having access to reliable winter plumbing services is essential for keeping your home safe, warm, and running smoothly during the colder months.

At MJ Services Lincs, we see a sharp rise in plumbing callouts throughout winter, many of which could have been prevented with early checks and simple preventative measures. Frozen pipes are one of the most common problems, often caused by poorly insulated pipework in lofts, garages, or external walls. When water freezes, it expands, placing pressure on pipes and increasing the risk of cracks or bursts once temperatures rise.

Burst pipes can lead to serious water damage if not dealt with quickly. Our winter plumbing services include emergency repairs, leak detection, pipe replacement, and isolation of affected systems to minimise disruption and damage. Acting fast is key, and having a trusted local plumber can make all the difference during an unexpected winter issue.

Boilers and heating systems are another major focus during winter. A boiler breakdown on a cold day isn’t just inconvenient, it can be stressful and uncomfortable. Regular servicing and early maintenance checks help ensure your system is operating efficiently and reliably when you need it most. Winter is also a good time to address issues such as uneven heating, noisy radiators, or slow warm-up times, all of which can indicate underlying problems.

Prevention is always better than cure. Simple steps like insulating exposed pipes, checking stop taps, bleeding radiators, and ensuring outdoor taps are properly isolated can significantly reduce the risk of winter plumbing emergencies. Our team can advise on practical, cost-effective solutions to help protect your property throughout the colder months.

Winter plumbing isn’t just about emergencies, it’s about preparation, maintenance, and peace of mind. Whether you’re a homeowner, landlord, or business owner, keeping your plumbing system in good condition helps avoid costly repairs and ensures your property remains safe and comfortable all winter long.

If you’re experiencing plumbing issues this winter or want to prepare your system before the cold weather takes hold this next week, professional support can help keep everything flowing as it should, no matter how low the temperature drops.

Winter Plumbing: How to Protect Your Home This Season

/in /by

As temperatures drop, your plumbing system becomes far more vulnerable to issues that simply don’t arise during the warmer months. At MJ Services Lincs, we see a surge in winter plumbing callouts every year—many of which could have been prevented with the right preparation. Winter might bring cosy evenings and festive celebrations, but it can also bring frozen pipes, boiler troubles, leaks and breakdowns. The good news? A little early attention can save you a lot of money, time and stress.

One of the biggest risks facing homeowners in winter is frozen pipes. When water freezes, it expands, placing huge pressure on pipework. This can lead to cracks or bursts that release significant amounts of water once the ice melts. Burst pipes can easily cause thousands of pounds in damage. Insulating pipes in unheated spaces such as lofts, garages and under-sink areas is a simple but effective solution. Even wrapping exposed pipework with inexpensive lagging can drastically reduce your risk.

Another essential winter check is your outside taps. Many people forget to isolate and drain them before temperatures fall. Water left inside the tap or its connected pipe can freeze quickly. If you’re unsure how to properly shut off and drain your external tap, our team can do this as part of a winter plumbing inspection.

Cold weather also highlights existing issues in plumbing systems. Small leaks can become larger as pipes contract in low temperatures, and ageing joints may begin to fail. Spotting damp patches, reduced water pressure or unusual noises early can prevent more serious problems. If you notice anything unusual, it’s wise to get a professional to look before the issue worsens.

Hot water systems also work harder during winter. Your boiler, cylinders and tanks must cope with increased demand. If you rely on an older system, a pre-winter health check is always recommended. Our engineers can assess your setup, flush out sludge build-up, check for operational issues and ensure your system is prepared for the months ahead.

At MJ Services Lincs, we take pride in helping homeowners across East Lindsey stay safe and comfortable all winter long. Proactive winter plumbing care makes a huge difference, and we’re here to make that process simple, affordable and stress-free. Whether you need insulation, repairs, servicing or peace of mind, our team is just a call away.

The Real Cost of a Leaky Tap: Why Fixing Small Issues Saves You Big

/in /by

We’ve all been there — that persistent drip, drip, drip of a leaking tap. It might seem like a minor annoyance, but over time, a leaky tap can lead to major consequences for your wallet, your home, and the environment. At MJ Services Lincs, we’re here to show you why acting early pays off.

Hidden Costs You Might Not See

A single dripping tap can waste over 5,000 litres of water a year. That’s not just bad for the planet — it hits your water bill too. Depending on your water rates, that’s money literally going down the drain.

Beyond bills, leaks can also:

  • Damage cabinets, countertops, or flooring

  • Cause mould and mildew — especially in hard-to-reach areas

  • Lead to pipe corrosion if left unchecked

Small Fix, Big Savings

In most cases, fixing a leaky tap is quick and affordable — often just a worn-out washer or loose part. A simple repair now can save you hundreds in repairs and wasted water down the line.

It’s About More Than Money

In today’s world, every drop counts. Fixing a leak isn’t just a smart financial move — it’s an eco-conscious one too. Small changes at home help us all reduce our water footprint and protect the environment.

Let MJ Services Lincs Handle It

Underfloor Heating: Is It Worth It for Your Home?

/in /by

If you’ve ever stepped onto a warm floor on a cold morning, you already know the appeal of underfloor heating. But is it just a luxury — or a smart, long-term investment in comfort and efficiency? At MJ Services Lincs, we install and service underfloor heating systems across Lincolnshire and beyond, and here’s what we think you should know.

Benefits of Underfloor Heating

  1. Even Heat Distribution
    No more cold spots or huddling near radiators — underfloor systems gently warm the entire space from the ground up.

  2. More Space, Less Clutter
    Say goodbye to bulky radiators. Underfloor heating is invisible, giving you more design freedom.

  3. Energy Efficient
    Underfloor heating works at lower temperatures than traditional systems, making it cheaper to run and more eco-friendly when properly installed and insulated.

  4. Compatible with Modern Heating
    It’s an excellent match for renewable energy solutions like heat pumps and solar thermal systems.

  5. Luxury Feel
    Let’s face it — warm floors feel amazing, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and tiled areas.

How Much Does It Cost?

  • Water-based systems: Higher installation cost but very efficient over time — perfect for full-home heating or new builds.

Costs vary based on the size of your space, flooring type, and current heating system. We offer free quotes and honest advice to help you decide what’s best for your home.

Best Scenarios for Installation

  • New builds or extensions
    Easy to incorporate into plans from the start.

  • Renovating bathrooms or kitchens
    A great time to upgrade your comfort without major disruption.

  • Homes with renewable heating systems
    Underfloor heating pairs brilliantly with air source or ground source heat pumps.

Is It Right for You?

Underfloor heating isn’t for every home — but when it’s the right fit, it adds serious comfort and value. The key is professional advice and expert installation, which is where MJ Services Lincs comes in.

Let’s Talk Heating

Thinking about underfloor heating? Whether you’re renovating or planning a new build, we’ll help you find the right system for your needs and budget.
