Central heating heating leaks are commonly located under floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler losing water pressure is the most probable indicator of a leaking central heating system, more symptoms include water damage or having to constantly bleed radiators. Our engineers identify the cause of heating leaks, regardless of the cause or location of the leak using non-invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing specialists give a fast central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks come from the pool structure, liner or be found anywhere on the filtration system. The most frequent cause of a swimming pool leak is cracked pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, more causes include worn filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers deliver a SPATA registered swimming pool leak detection service to detect the origin of swimming pool leaks
Water mains leaks can present as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a symptom of a leaking water supply line. The most frequent location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to split or fittings to become compromised. Our experts do a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then conduct a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We detect underground water leaks by first assessing which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection approach is used to track the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks typically appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under floor heating circuits include deteriorated pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our experts discover leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, defective construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team identify 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 range from slight water intrusion causing damp to a major flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry appears where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, faulty construction, insufficient maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Detect the source of your roof leak by choosing our very qualified roof leak investigation professionals.
Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework behind walls, underneath 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 identify 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!
Drainage leaks happen on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include cracked pipes, damaged seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A drainage system is not pressurised so leak detection technologies are limited to CCTV inspections inside the drainage pipe. Our drainage technician carries out a full inspection to find the cause of the leak and are normally able to undertake a repair on the same day.
