Central Heating Leaks

Central heating heating leaks are typically concealed beneath floors, inside walls or cavities. A boiler losing water pressure is the most probable indicator of a leaking central heating system, other clues include water damage or needing to frequently bleed radiators. Our engineers locate the origin of heating leaks, no matter the cause or location of the leak using non destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing specialists give a fast central heating leak repair service.

Swimming Pool Leaks

Swimming pool leaks stem from the pool structure, liner or be present anywhere on the filtration system. The most common cause of a swimming pool leak is fractured pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, further causes include faulty filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Certified divers supply a SPATA accredited swimming pool leak detection service to find the origin of swimming pool leaks

Mains Water Leaks

Water mains leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The most frequent 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 technicians complete a water meter leak test to establish whether the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.

Below Ground Water Leaks

Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We identify underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection system is used to find the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.

UFH Leaks

Under floor heating leaks regularly happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our technicians locate leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.

Structural Building Leaks

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

Flat Roof Leaks

Roof leaks extend from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, poor construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our extremely skilled roof leak investigation specialists.

Shower and Bathroom Leaks

Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework within 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 professionals locate leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive leak detection equipment. Prevent further water damage to your property!

Drain Leaks

Drainage Leaks appear on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV assessments inside the drainpipe. Our drainage technician carries out a complete inspection to find the cause of the leak and is usually able to perform a repair on the same day.
