A quiet Cotswold village near Nailsworth, Avening's traditional stone cottages benefit from sensitive bathroom renovations that respect their period character.
Avening features a mix of Cotswold stone cottages with thick walls, Georgian and Victorian townhouses, 1930s semis, and modern estates. the Severn Vale gets damp winters with heavy rainfall. Bathrooms need good ventilation and proper waterproofing — condensation on cold stone walls is a particular issue in older properties.
Preventing plumbing emergencies in Avening is cheaper than fixing them. We recommend annual boiler servicing, lagging exposed pipes in lofts and garages before winter, and knowing where your stop valve is. These simple steps prevent the majority of the emergency calls we attend.
The most important thing during a plumbing emergency in Avening is stopping the water. We'll talk Gloucestershire homeowners through finding and turning off the stop valve while we're en route. If your stop valve is seized (common in older properties), we'll guide you to the external stop tap as a backup.
Label your Avening home's stop valve location clearly — stick a label on the wall or cupboard door. In an emergency, anyone in the household should be able to find and turn it off within 30 seconds.
If a radiator starts leaking at the valve in your Avening home, you can usually stop it temporarily by turning the valve fully clockwise (off). This buys you time to arrange a non-emergency repair rather than paying emergency rates.
