Boiler Leaks

Central heating heating leaks are typically buried beneath floors, within walls or cavities. A boiler dropping water pressure is the most probable signal of a leaking central heating system, other clues include water damage or needing to regularly bleed radiators. Our engineers pinpoint the source of heating leaks, no matter the cause or location of the leak using non destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing professionals deliver a fast central heating leak repair service.

Pool Leaks

Swimming pool leaks stem from the pool structure, liner or be located anywhere on the filtration system. The most likely cause of a swimming pool leak is cracked pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, other causes include defective filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers offer a SPATA certified swimming pool leak detection service to detect the source of swimming pool leaks

Water Mains Leaks

Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a indicator of a leaking water mains. The most typical location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to rupture or fittings to become faulty. Our specialists do a water meter leak test to establish if the leak is internal or external, then complete a leak detection investigation to detect the leak.

Underground Water Leaks

Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, degraded pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We identify underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection method is used to track the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.

Underfloor Heating Leaks

Under floor heating leaks often happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, substandard installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our experts pinpoint leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.

Building Leaks

Building leaks arise in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, substandard construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection techniques including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.

Roof Leaks

Roof leaks span from slight water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, poor construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our extremely expert roof leak investigation experts.

Shower and Bathroom Leaks

Shower and bathroom leaks originate from hidden pipework inside 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 technicians pinpoint leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non-destructive leak detection equipment. Avoid further water damage to your property!

Drain Leaks

Drainage Leaks occur 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 drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV surveys inside the pipe. Our drainage engineer delivers a complete inspection to pinpoint the cause of the leak and are generally able to perform a repair on the same day.

Questions & Answers - Leak Detection in Richmond

Do you guarantee you'll find my leak?

No leak detection company can guarantee identifying any leak. Though, we provide a No leak-No charge service for water main leaks on individual properties where the pipes are less than 30 meters long and losing more than 30 liters per hour.

Will detecting the leak damage my property?

No.. Our non destructive leak detection methods will not damage your property. On occasion, we may need to drill a tiny 5mm hole into a cavity for camera access. No matter where the leak's location, minor damage may be necessary to access and repair it.

Will you shut off the water when performing leak detection?

We usually do not need to isolate your water supply during leak investigations. That said, we may need to turn off the stopcock briefly when carrying out repairs.

How long does leak detection take ?

Leak detection usually takes anywhere between a couple of hours to a full day or longer. The time required to discover the leak source depends on the nature of the leak, its location, and the complexity of the investigation.

Will you fix my leak?

Yes. We are able to repair plumbing system leaks on the same day as detection, if our engineer has enough time after identifying the leak. Repair charges apply separately.

Can you help with my insurance claim?

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