Central heating heating leaks are usually located below floors, inside walls or cavities. A boiler losing pressure is the single most probable symptom of a leaking central heating system, further warnings include water damage or needing to regularly bleed radiators. Our experts identify the source of heating leaks, no matter the cause or location of the leak using non destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing experts give a immediate central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks originate from the pool structure, liner or be anywhere on the filtration system. The most typical cause of a swimming pool leak is fractured pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, other causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Certified divers provide a SPATA registered swimming pool leak detection service to pinpoint the source of swimming pool leaks
Water main leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a sign of a leaking water mains. The single most likely location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become compromised. Our engineers perform a water meter leak test to confirm if the leak is internal or external, then carry out a leak detection investigation to pinpoint the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We discover underground water leaks by first evaluating which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection technique is used to locate the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks commonly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our experts locate 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 locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a array of leak detection technologies including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from slow water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water penetration happens where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, lacking maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Discover the source of your roof leak by choosing our very professional roof leak investigation experts.
Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework within walls, underneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include deteriorated fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection engineers discover 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 arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not pressurized so leak detection techniques are limited to CCTV surveys inside the drainpipe. Our drainage engineer delivers a thorough inspection to detect the cause of the leak and is usually able to carry out a repair on the same day.

We usually don't need to turn off your water supply during leak investigations. However, we may need to turn off the stopcock for a short time when carrying out repairs.
Leak detection normally takes anywhere from a several hours to a full day or beyond. The time taken to pinpoint the leak source depends on the type of leak, its location, and the complexity of the investigation.
