Our plumbing professionals give a same-day central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks arise from the pool structure, liner or be found anywhere on the filtration system. The single most common cause of a swimming pool leak is fractured pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, additional causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Certified divers deliver a SPATA recognised swimming pool leak detection service to pinpoint the location of swimming pool leaks
Water main leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A unusually high water bill is a signal of a leaking water supply line. The most probable location of a water supply leak is outside where the water mains is affected by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become damaged. Our technicians carry out a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks arise 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 initially identifying which pipes are below the ground. Our non invasive leak detection method is used to track the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under-floor heating leaks commonly arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our engineers identify leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks happen in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, faulty construction or overdue maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection technologies 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 penetration occurs where there are broken tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our extremely qualified roof leak investigation technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks come from hidden pipework within 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 engineers pinpoint leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive 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 fractured pipes, faulty seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not pressurized so leak detection methods are limited to CCTV inspections inside the drain pipe. Our drainage expert offers a full inspection to pinpoint the cause of the leak and are generally able to carry out a repair on the same day.
