Central heating heating leaks are commonly concealed below floors, within walls or cavities. A boiler losing water pressure is the most probable sign of a leaking central heating system, additional indicators include water damage or needing to frequently bleed radiators.

Our plumbing engineers supply a rapid central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks arise from the pool structure, liner or be anywhere on the filtration system. The single most likely cause of a swimming pool leak is fractured pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, further causes include worn filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers provide a SPATA registered swimming pool leak detection service to discover the cause of swimming pool leaks
Water mains leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a sign of a leaking water supply line. The single most frequent location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become damaged. Our experts conduct a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to discover the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We identify underground water leaks by initially identifying which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection process is used to pinpoint the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks commonly occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our experts identify leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection systems including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress happens where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our exceptionally skilled roof leak investigation specialists.
Shower and bathroom leaks originate from hidden pipework behind walls, under the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include worn out fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection specialists find leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non-destructive leak detection equipment. Eliminate further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks develop on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include fractured pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV assessments inside the drainpipe. Our drainage expert provides a complete inspection to locate the cause of the leak and is typically able to execute a repair on the same day.
