Mains Water Leaks

Water mains leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a sign of a leaking water main. The single most common location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to break or fittings to become worn. Our experts perform 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

Underground water leaks develop from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or faulty installations. We identify underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are underneath the ground. Our non invasive leak detection process is used to trace the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.

Underfloor Heating Leaks

Under-floor heating leaks typically appear on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include corroded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a inadequate maintenance routine. Our engineers locate leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.

Structural Building Leaks

Building leaks happen in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settlement of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team locate leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a suite of leak detection methods including tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.

Tile Leaks

Roof leaks range from slow water intrusion causing damp to a heavy flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion happens where there are cracked tiles, damaged flashing, crumbling mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, incorrect construction, inadequate maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Find the source of your roof leak by choosing our very expert roof leak investigation specialists.

Shower and Bathroom Leaks

Shower and bathroom leaks develop from hidden pipework within walls, beneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Our plumbing leak detection experts find leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive leak detection equipment.

Drainage Leaks

Drainage leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include split pipes, damaged 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 provide a thorough inspection to locate the cause of the leak and are often able to undertake a repair on the same day.

Questions & Answers - Leak Detection in Southend

Do you guarantee to find my leak?

No leak detection company can guarantee detecting every leak. Nevertheless, we provide a No find-No fee service for water mains leaks on individual properties where the pipes are shorter than 30 metres long and losing in excess of 30 L per hour.

Will leak detection damage my property?

No.. Our non-invasive leak detection methods do not damage your property. Rarely, we may need to drill a minimal 5mm hole into a cavity for camera access. Whatever the leak's location, limited damage might be required to access and repair it.

Will you shut off the water when performing leak detection?

We typically will not need to switch off your water supply during leak investigations. But, we may need to switch off the stopcock briefly when performing repairs.

How long does it take ?

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

Will you mend my leak?

Yes. We will repair plumbing leaks on the same day as detection, if our engineer has sufficient time after detecting the leak. Repair charges apply additionally.

Can you assist with my insurance claim?

Yes. We produce insurance-approved reports for insurance claim purposes. If your home insurance covers "Trace and Access" cover, you can recoup the leak detection costs.
