Central heating heating leaks are often concealed under floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler dropping pressure is the most likely sign of a leaking central heating system, more clues include water damage or needing to regularly bleed radiators. Our engineers pinpoint the origin of heating leaks, no matter the cause or location of the leak using non-invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing technicians deliver a same-day central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks originate from the pool structure, liner or be anywhere on the filtration system. The single most typical cause of a swimming pool leak is broken pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, additional causes include faulty filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers supply a SPATA recognised swimming pool leak detection service to identify the source of swimming pool leaks
Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a warning of a leaking water main. The most typical location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become damaged. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or defective installations. We discover underground water leaks by initially determining which pipes are under the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection process is used to track the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks often appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our professionals 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 settlement of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or overdue maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a variety of leak detection methods 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 intrusion happens where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, improper construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Identify the source of your roof leak by choosing our extremely professional roof leak investigation technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks come from hidden pipework within walls, underneath 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 experts 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 damaged pipes, deteriorated 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 surveys inside the drainage pipe. Our drainage expert carries out a full inspection to detect the cause of the leak and is typically able to complete a repair on the same day.
