Central heating heating leaks are commonly located beneath floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler losing water pressure is the single most probable indicator of a leaking central heating system, further clues include water damage or having to constantly bleed radiators. Our engineers identify the location of heating leaks, regardless of the cause or location of the leak using non-invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing experts supply a rapid central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks stem 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, other causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Trained divers supply a SPATA certified swimming pool leak detection service to pinpoint the location of swimming pool leaks
Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a signal of a leaking water mains. The single most common location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become compromised. Our experts conduct a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We detect underground water leaks by initially evaluating which pipes are under the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection system is used to locate the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks regularly occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our technicians discover leaks on under floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team discover 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 vary from slight water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress appears where there are loose 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. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our very professional roof leak investigation team.
Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework inside walls, under the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

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. Avoid further water damage to your property!
Drainage Leaks develop on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, faulty seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV assessments inside the drainpipe.
