Our plumbing technicians give 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 cracked pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, other causes include defective filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers supply a SPATA registered swimming pool leak detection service to find the origin of swimming pool leaks
Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a signal of a leaking water mains. The single most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water main is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become worn. Our engineers carry out a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
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 inadequate installations. We detect underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are under the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection system is used to identify the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks regularly appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our technicians locate leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection approaches including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from minor water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress develops where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, failing 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. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our exceptionally experienced roof leak investigation professionals.

Drainage leaks happen 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.
