Central heating heating leaks are often buried beneath floors, inside walls or cavities. A boiler losing pressure is the single most typical signal of a leaking central heating system, other indicators include water damage or having to regularly bleed radiators. Our technicians locate the source of heating leaks, no matter the cause or location of the leak using non-invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing specialists offer a same day 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 likely cause of a swimming pool leak is broken 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 approved swimming pool leak detection service to pinpoint the cause of swimming pool leaks
Water supply leaks can manifest as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a signal of a leaking water main. The most probable location of a water supply leak is outside where the water mains is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become faulty. Our experts perform a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, rusted pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We pinpoint underground water leaks by initially establishing which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection technique is used to pinpoint the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our specialists discover leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to movement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team detect leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection technologies including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks span from minor water intrusion causing damp to a severe flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration develops where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our exceptionally expert roof leak investigation professionals.
Shower and bathroom leaks develop from hidden pipework inside walls, underneath 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 engineers find leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non destructive leak detection equipment. Stop further water damage to your property!
Drainage Leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include fractured pipes, worn seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection technologies are limited to CCTV examinations inside the pipe. Our drainage specialist provides a detailed inspection to pinpoint the cause of the leak and is generally able to carry out a repair on the same day.
