Central heating heating leaks are frequently hidden underneath floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler losing water pressure is the most probable indicator of a leaking central heating system, other indicators include water damage or having to constantly bleed radiators. Our professionals find the location of heating leaks, irrespective of the cause or location of the leak using non-invasive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing specialists give a immediate central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks originate from the pool structure, liner or be found 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, additional causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Trained divers offer a SPATA approved swimming pool leak detection service to discover the origin of swimming pool leaks
Water main leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A high water bill is a warning of a leaking water supply line. The most likely location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become worn. Our experts carry out a water meter leak test to verify if the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to find the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water supply lines, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or poor installations. We identify underground water leaks by firstly evaluating which pipes are below the ground. Our non-invasive leak detection system is used to find the source of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks typically happen on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on under-floor heating circuits include degraded pipework, poor installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our experts discover leaks on underfloor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks develop in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, poor construction or insufficient maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a range of leak detection techniques including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks vary from minor water intrusion causing damp to a substantial flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water intrusion occurs where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, degraded mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, poor construction, poor maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Discover the source of your roof leak by choosing our exceptionally skilled roof leak investigation team.
Shower and bathroom leaks arise from hidden pipework behind walls, beneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink. Causes of shower and bathroom leaks include damaged fixtures, fittings, washers and seals along with corrosion of pipes and loose plumbing fixtures. Our plumbing leak detection technicians locate 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 develop on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, faulty seals, blockages, loose connections along with tree roots and ground movement. A Drainage system is not under pressure so leak detection technologies are limited to CCTV examinations inside the pipe. Our drainage engineer provides a comprehensive inspection to locate the cause of the leak and are generally able to carry out a repair on the same day.
