Central heating heating leaks are commonly hidden below floors, inside walls or cavities. A boiler losing water pressure is the single most probable signal of a leaking central heating system, further indicators include water damage or having to frequently bleed radiators. Our specialists discover the origin of heating leaks, whatever the cause or location of the leak using non-destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing specialists provide a same-day central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks originate from the pool structure, liner or be present anywhere on the filtration system. The single most common cause of a swimming pool leak is broken pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, additional causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Certified divers deliver a SPATA certified swimming pool leak detection service to find the location of swimming pool leaks
Water main leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The most typical location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become damaged. Our professionals complete a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We detect underground water leaks by first identifying which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to find the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks frequently develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a lacking maintenance routine. Our experts find leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate 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 span from slow water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, insufficient maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Locate the source of your roof leak by choosing our very skilled roof leak investigation experts.
Shower and bathroom leaks originate from hidden pipework inside walls, underneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include damaged fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection engineers detect leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non-invasive leak detection equipment. Eliminate further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include cracked pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drain system is not pressurized so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV surveys inside the pipe. Our drainage engineers delivers a comprehensive inspection to locate the cause of the leak and are generally able to undertake a repair on the same day.
