Central Heating Leaks

Central heating heating leaks are often buried below floors, within walls or cavities. A boiler dropping water pressure is the most likely indicator of a leaking central heating system, more indicators include water damage or needing to often bleed radiators. Our professionals detect the location of heating leaks, irrespective of the cause or location of the leak using non destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing experts supply a same-day central heating leak repair service.

Swimming Pool Leaks

Swimming pool leaks stem from the pool structure, liner or be anywhere on the filtration system. The single most typical cause of a swimming pool leak is fractured pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, other causes include defective filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Trained divers offer a SPATA registered swimming pool leak detection service to locate the location of swimming pool leaks

Water Mains Leaks

Water main leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The most likely location of a water mains leak is outside where the water mains is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become damaged. Our specialists do a water meter leak test to verify whether the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to find the leak.

Underground Water Leaks

Underground water leaks come from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We detect underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are below the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection method is used to find the cause of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.

Underfloor Heating Leaks

Underfloor heating leaks frequently occur on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include worn pipework, improper installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our specialists discover leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.

Structural Building Leaks

Building leaks occur in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection systems including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.

Flat Roof Leaks

Roof leaks extend from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are loose tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, neglected maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Detect the source of your roof leak by choosing our very expert roof leak investigation experts.

Shower and Bathroom Leaks

Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework behind walls, below 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 find leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive leak detection equipment. Prevent further water damage to your property!

Drain Leaks

Drainage leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, broken seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drain system is not pressurised so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV examinations inside the drain pipe. Our drainage technician provides a detailed inspection to pinpoint the cause of the leak and is generally able to undertake a repair on the same day.

FAQs - Leak Detection in Preston

Do you guarantee to find my leak?

No leak detection company can guarantee finding every leak. Nevertheless, we supply a No leak-No charge service for water mains leaks on individual properties where the supply lines are under 30 meters long and losing more than 30 litres per hour.

Will leak detection damage my property?

No. Our non invasive leak detection methods won't damage your property. In some cases, we may need to drill a tiny 5mm hole into a cavity for camera access. Whatever the leak's location, small damage might be required to access and repair it.

Will you isolate the water while leak detection?

We most often don't need to shut off your water supply during leak investigations. However, we may need to close the stopcock temporarily when undertaking repairs.

How long does it take to detect a leak?

Leak detection normally takes between a couple of hours up to a full day or beyond. The time needed to discover the leak source depends on the type of leak, its location, and the complexity of the investigation.

Will you mend my leak?

Yes. We can repair plumbing leaks on the same day as detection, when our engineer has adequate time after detecting the leak. Repair charges apply independently.

Can you aid me with my insurance claim?

Yes. We offer insurance-approved reports for claim purposes. If your home insurance contains "Trace and Access" protection, you can get back the leak detection costs.
