Test it before it tests you. 🔥

Before the first properly cold morning, run your heating for 10–15 minutes this month. Pumps and diverter valves can stick after sitting idle, and faults often show up just when you need the heating most.

Repairs to these components can commonly cost around £180–£380. A pre-winter heating service is a sensible way to check your system now, while there’s time to investigate any concerns before the cold sets in.

Pipes Group supports homeowners, landlords, letting agents and commercial or managed property clients across Lincoln, Skegness and wider Lincolnshire. With plumbing, heating and gas under one contractor, we can coordinate a boiler service, plumbing work and follow-on repairs in one visit where practical.

Booking a static caravan or lodge winter drain-down? It can be arranged on its own, or with reopening at the start of the season: reconnecting, testing, purging and relighting. A heating service is an optional extra, not part of the close-down.

The 1 October insurance deadline may have passed, but it is still not too late to protect your static caravan or lodge from winter damage. ❄️

A proper winter close-down is about more than simply turning off the water. It should include:

✅ Draining every water line
✅ Dealing with traps, where frost damage can lead to costly claims
✅ Protecting external pipework and outdoor taps from frost damage
✅ A heating service while the van is still in use
✅ A gas safety check by a qualified Gas Safe engineer

Leaving a van shut up and undrained can mean a burst pipe, damaged traps and a much bigger repair in January. Getting it done now is generally far cheaper and helps reduce disruption when the season starts again.

For park operators and letting agents, we can organise park-wide drain-down days, working plot by plot to keep the process structured and efficient.

One contractor across plumbing, heating, gas and drainage. One visit. One invoice. Clear communication throughout.

Covering Lincoln, Skegness, Ingoldmells, Chapel St Leonards, Mablethorpe and the wider Lincolnshire coast.

Message us with the park name and number of vans, and we can confirm the next available date.

Before your school, academy or public-sector building closes for half-term or Christmas, take time to plan for the cold weather properly. ❄️

Empty buildings are less likely to show early signs of a burst pipe, heating failure or escape of water. A few practical checks before closure can help reduce disruption when staff return.

✅ Confirm heating systems are set correctly for frost protection
✅ Isolate and drain systems where appropriate, with professional advice
✅ Make sure the stop tap and key isolation points are accessible
✅ Check plant rooms, tanks, loft spaces and vulnerable pipework
✅ Agree a named contact for the closure period
✅ Set out a clear response plan if an alarm, leak or heating fault is reported

Also keep an eye out for potential water loss. A notification from your water supplier, a water meter still moving when no water is being used, or unexplained water loss may indicate a hidden leak that needs investigating.

Pipes Group supports schools, academies, care settings, public-sector buildings and facilities managers across Lincolnshire, including Lincoln and Skegness.

From planned maintenance and pre-closure checks to reactive support, we provide one accountable contractor across plumbing, heating, gas, drainage, groundworks and property repairs.

⭐ “Excellent service from start to finish.” ⭐

A lovely five-star review from Teresa after we located and repaired a leaking pipe beneath her concrete floor, then checked everything was working correctly and the heating system was pressurised.

Thank you, Teresa, for trusting PIPESGROUP and sharing your experience. 🙌

💧 We don’t just find the leak—we can fix it too.

🔧 Today’s boiler replacement came with a few challenges!

The customer’s ageing boiler was causing constant problems, and the existing pipework needed sorting out.

The cupboard had been built around the original boiler, so removing it meant taking off the door and door frame first. The new flue position also needed adapting with two elbows to connect to the roof outlet.

A new Ariston boiler fitted, pipework reworked for a much tidier finish, and a new wireless room thermostat installed for added comfort and ease of use—allowing the customer to control the heating from anywhere in the property. 👌

Closing the caravans is only half the winter shutdown. ❄️

For holiday parks, the costly damage often starts in the shared facilities left charged over winter:

🚿 Toilet and shower blocks
🏢 Clubhouse and laundry facilities
🔧 External pipework
💧 Outdoor taps and exposed water services

A hard frost can lead to burst pipework, flooded blocks, unusable facilities, emergency callouts and potential insurance claims, often discovered when the site is being prepared to reopen.

A proper winter shutdown check should cover:

✅ Plumbing isolation, draining and protection
✅ Heating and gas system checks
✅ Inspection of external pipework and outdoor taps left charged over winter
✅ Planned maintenance recommendations for the next season

Whether your site is in Skegness, Ingoldmells, Chapel St Leonards, Mablethorpe or inland around Lincoln, PIPESGROUP can provide one coordinated service across the park.

One contractor. Clear communication. Proper winter preparation across plumbing, heating, gas, drainage and groundworks.

💧 320 litres an hour. 7,680 litres a day. All escaping through this small hole.

Today’s customer was losing water from copper pipework beneath the floor. We located the leak quickly, helping reduce the risk of further damage and costly repairs.

Left running at that rate, this leak could waste:
💧 230,400 litres in 30 days
💧 Over 2.8 MILLION litres in a year
💷 Around £680 a month — or £8,280 a year — in water alone!

Cost estimate based on Anglian Water’s standard domestic metered tariff, excluding sewerage charges and any leak allowance.

That’s before the potential cost of damaged floors, damp and reinstatement.

A small hole. A huge amount of waste.

STATIC CARAVAN WINTER DRAIN-DOWN: WHAT A PROPER VISIT COVERS 🏕️❄️

As the cold arrives on Thursday 8 October, it is worth being clear about what a professional drain-down should involve.

Simply turning off the water and opening a tap does not remove all the water from a static caravan or lodge. Residual water left in pipework, toilets and traps can freeze, expand and split components during the winter.

A proper drain-down covers:

✓ Draining every water line properly
✓ Dealing with residual water in toilets, traps and fittings
✓ Blowing through the pipework to remove trapped water
✓ Checking the system has been left safely for the closed season
✓ Clearing gutters and gullies so winter rain runs away from the plot

The gaps in a DIY drain-down are often the parts that cause the damage later: water that remains hidden in low points, traps or sections of pipework.

For park operators and letting agents, we can also plan park-wide drain-down days, working plot by plot with a clear, organised process.

The drain-down can be booked on its own, or as a complete package with reopening at the start of the season: reconnecting the van, testing the system, purging and relighting it. A heating service or gas safety check can be added separately if required; these are optional add-ons, not part of the close-down.

Covering Skegness, Ingoldmells, Chapel St Leonards, Mablethorpe, Lincoln and the wider Lincolnshire coast.

WATER POOLING THIS WINTER? DON’T WAIT FOR A BLOCKAGE TO BECOME A FLOOD. 🌧️

Blocked gullies, overflowing manholes and slow drainage can be caused by more than leaves and rainwater.

Fat, grease and debris can build up inside pipework, while root ingress may restrict flow or damage underground drainage. If the underlying cause is missed, the problem can return, often at the worst possible time.

Pipes Group provides professional drainage and groundworks support for homeowners, commercial premises, holiday parks and facilities management clients across Lincolnshire.

Our services include:
✅ Drain and gully clearance
✅ High-pressure jetting
✅ CCTV drainage surveys
✅ Root ingress investigation
✅ Fat, grease and debris removal
✅ Drainage repairs and associated groundworks

A CCTV survey can help identify the actual cause before unnecessary excavation or repeat callouts are needed.

If you’ve noticed surface water pooling, slow drainage, unpleasant smells or recurring blockages, get in touch with Pipes Group for a proper investigation and clear next steps.

🏠 Empty, second or temporarily unoccupied property? Before colder weather arrives, winter protection should be on your checklist.

Unoccupied homes, probate properties, landlord voids and out-of-season holiday accommodation can be especially vulnerable to frozen pipes and escape of water.

Useful checks include:
✅ Drain-down where appropriate
✅ Locate and test the stopcock
✅ Protect exposed pipework from frost
✅ Set heating and frost protection correctly
✅ Arrange inspections during unoccupied periods
✅ Check your insurer’s requirements and keep records of completed checks

Insurance conditions can vary, and failing to follow them may affect a claim. Always check your policy or speak to your insurer, loss adjuster or property manager.

Pipes Group Ltd can support property owners, landlords, holiday park operators, insurers and loss adjusters with plumbing checks, winterisation, leak investigation and property repairs across Lincolnshire, including the coast.
