Central heating heating leaks are commonly buried under floors, inside walls or cavities. A boiler losing water water pressure is the most likely indicator of a leaking central heating system, more symptoms include water damage or having to constantly bleed radiators. Our experts detect the origin of heating leaks, regardless of the cause or location of the leak using non destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing specialists offer 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 most frequent cause of a swimming pool leak is damaged pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, additional causes include defective filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Trained divers provide a SPATA registered swimming pool leak detection service to discover the cause of swimming pool leaks
Water supply leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a indicator of a leaking water mains. The most common location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become compromised. Our specialists conduct a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We detect underground water leaks by first identifying which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection technique is used to trace the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks typically appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our engineers detect leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement 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 suite of leak detection technologies including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from slight water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress happens where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Identify the source of your roof leak by choosing our extremely qualified roof leak investigation technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks stem from hidden pipework inside 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. Stop further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include fractured pipes, damaged seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV surveys inside the drain pipe. Our drainage specialist provides a complete inspection to find the cause of the leak and are normally able to carry out a repair on the same day.
