Central heating heating leaks are typically located underneath floors, within walls or cavities. A boiler losing pressure is the most common signal of a leaking central heating system, additional clues include water damage or needing to repeatedly bleed radiators. Our technicians detect the origin of heating leaks, irrespective of the cause or location of the leak using non invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing technicians give a fast central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks stem from the pool structure, liner or be anywhere on the filtration system. The single most probable cause of a swimming pool leak is cracked pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, more causes include loose filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Accredited divers offer a SPATA recognised swimming pool leak detection service to discover the cause of swimming pool leaks
Water main leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water main. The single most common 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 defective. Our experts do a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We identify underground water leaks by firstly identifying which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection technique is used to trace the origin 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 deteriorated pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our engineers discover leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection methods including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from slow water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration occurs where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, lacking maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our very expert roof leak investigation specialists.
Shower and bathroom leaks originate from hidden pipework behind walls, below 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 experts locate 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 broken pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not pressurized so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV examinations inside the drainpipe. Our drainage technician offers a thorough inspection to pinpoint the cause of the leak and is normally able to execute a repair on the same day.
