Central heating heating leaks are commonly hidden under floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler losing water water pressure is the most frequent sign of a leaking central heating system, other clues include water damage or needing to repeatedly bleed radiators. Our engineers pinpoint the origin of heating leaks, irrespective of the cause or location of the leak using non-destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing professionals supply a same day central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks originate from the pool structure, liner or be located 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, more causes include worn filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers offer 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 high water bill is a symptom of a leaking water mains. The single most common location of a water supply leak is outside where the water supply pipe is impacted by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become faulty. Our engineers carry out a water meter leak test to determine if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks develop from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, worn pipes, tree root damage or inadequate installations. We detect underground water leaks by initially assessing which pipes are under the ground. Our non invasive leak detection method is used to pinpoint the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks regularly happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include damaged pipework, incorrect installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our professionals locate leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks arise in the roof, wall or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or deferred maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find 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 span from slow water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion develops where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, deteriorating mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Locate the source of your roof leak by choosing our highly experienced roof leak investigation team.
Shower and bathroom leaks come from hidden pipework behind walls, below 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 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 appear 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 drain system is not pressurized so leak detection approaches are limited to CCTV assessments inside the pipe. Our drainage engineers provides a complete inspection to find the cause of the leak and are usually able to carry out a repair on the same day.
