Central heating heating leaks are often located under floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler dropping pressure is the most likely sign of a leaking central heating system, additional warnings include water damage or having to regularly bleed radiators.

Our plumbing technicians give a immediate central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks come from the pool structure, liner or be present anywhere on the filtration system. The single most probable cause of a swimming pool leak is damaged pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, other causes include defective filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Trained divers supply a SPATA recognised swimming pool leak detection service to detect the source 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 supply line. The single most likely location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply line is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become defective. Our technicians conduct a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We discover underground water leaks by first evaluating which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection system is used to find the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks typically occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our specialists pinpoint leaks on underfloor 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, poor construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection techniques including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress happens where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating 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. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly skilled roof leak investigation experts.
Shower and bathroom leaks stem from hidden pipework inside walls, underneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include worn fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection engineers identify leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non destructive leak detection equipment. Avoid further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include cracked pipes, worn seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV investigations inside the drainage pipe. Our drainage engineer offers a comprehensive inspection to detect the cause of the leak and are often able to perform a repair on the same day.
