Pool Leaks

The most frequent cause of a swimming pool leak is damaged pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, more causes include defective filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Trained divers offer a SPATA certified swimming pool leak detection service to identify the location of swimming pool leaks

Mains Water Leaks

Water supply leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The single most probable location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become compromised. Our specialists perform a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.

Underground Water Leaks

Underground water leaks stem from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We locate underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to identify the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.

Underfloor Heating Leaks

Under-floor heating leaks frequently arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our experts find leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.

Building Leaks

Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection systems including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.

Roof Leaks

Roof leaks extend from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress happens where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, lacking maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Identify the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly skilled roof leak investigation experts.

Bath Leaks

Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework behind walls, beneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include deteriorated fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection technicians find leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non-destructive leak detection equipment. Avoid further water damage to your property!

Drain Leaks

Drainage Leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not pressurized so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV examinations inside the drain pipe. Our drainage engineer delivers a detailed inspection to identify the cause of the leak and is often able to perform a repair on the same day.

Frequently Asked Questions - Leak Detection in Basildon

Do you guarantee you will find my leak?

No leak detection company can guarantee identifying any leaks. However, we offer a No find-No fee service for water mains leaks on individual properties where the main lines are under 30 meters long and losing in excess of 30 liters per hour.

Will finding the leak damage my property?

No. Our non destructive leak detection methods don't damage your property. Sometimes, we may need to drill a small 5mm hole into a cavity for camera access. Regardless of the leak's location, minor damage could be essential to access and repair it.

Will you turn off the water while leak detection?

We normally will not need to disconnect your water supply during leak investigations. But, we may need to isolate the stopcock temporarily when performing repairs.

How long does leak detection take to detect a leak?

Leak detection often takes anywhere from a couple of hours and a full day or longer. The time needed to pinpoint the leak source depends on the leak type, its location, and the complexity of the investigation.

Will you repair my leak?

Yes. We are able to repair plumbing system leaks on the same day as detection, when our engineer has sufficient time after locating the leak. Repair charges apply independently.

Can you assist with my insurance claim?

Yes. We supply insurance-approved reports for insurance claim purposes. If your home insurance includes "Trace and Access" cover, you can claim back the leak detection costs.
