Central heating heating leaks are typically buried under floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler dropping water pressure is the most frequent symptom of a leaking central heating system, additional indicators include water damage or having to repeatedly bleed radiators. Our engineers pinpoint the origin of heating leaks, whatever the cause or location of the leak using non-invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing engineers offer a immediate 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 deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Certified divers deliver a SPATA certified swimming pool leak detection service to pinpoint the source of swimming pool leaks
Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The single most probable location of a water main leak is outside where the water supply line is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become damaged. Our engineers conduct a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks come from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We discover underground water leaks by firstly establishing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection approach is used to identify 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 corroded pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a insufficient maintenance routine. Our technicians detect leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint 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 extend from minor water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress occurs where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating 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. Identify the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly skilled roof leak investigation professionals.
Shower and bathroom leaks originate from hidden pipework inside walls, beneath 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 pinpoint leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non-destructive 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 cracked pipes, faulty seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drain system is not under pressure so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV assessments inside the drainage pipe. Our drainage expert carries out a thorough inspection to identify the cause of the leak and is generally able to complete a repair on the same day.
