Central heating heating leaks are commonly located beneath floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler losing water pressure is the single most likely sign of a leaking central heating system, other signs include water damage or needing to often bleed radiators. Our professionals find the source of heating leaks, no matter the cause or location of the leak using non invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing experts provide a same-day central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks stem from the pool structure, liner or be anywhere on the filtration system. The most typical cause of a swimming pool leak is split pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, more causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers deliver a SPATA approved swimming pool leak detection service to discover the location of swimming pool leaks
Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The most probable location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become faulty. Our experts do a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks stem from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We detect underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection method is used to track the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks typically develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include worn pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our engineers find leaks on underfloor 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 movement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection systems including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks extend from minor water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry occurs where there are loose 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. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our very professional roof leak investigation specialists.
Shower and bathroom leaks come from hidden pipework inside walls, under 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 experts detect leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive leak detection equipment. Avoid further water damage to your property!
Drainage Leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, deteriorated seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV assessments inside the drain pipe. Our drainage specialist provide a full inspection to locate the cause of the leak and are typically able to carry out a repair on the same day.
