Central heating heating leaks are often buried underneath floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler losing water water pressure is the most frequent signal of a leaking central heating system, other clues include water damage or needing to constantly 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 technicians deliver a immediate central heating leak repair service.
Swimming pool leaks come from the pool structure, liner or be located anywhere on the filtration system. The most common cause of a swimming pool leak is broken pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, additional causes include loose filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers deliver a SPATA registered swimming pool leak detection service to identify the source of swimming pool leaks
Water mains leaks can appear as an internal or external water leak. A elevated water bill is a indicator of a leaking water main. The single most frequent location of a water mains leak is outside where the water mains is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become damaged. Our engineers do a water meter leak test to determine whether the leak is internal or external, then undertake a leak detection investigation to locate the leak.
Underground water leaks arise from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, deteriorated pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We find underground water leaks by firstly determining which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non-destructive leak detection technique is used to identify the location of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Under floor heating leaks commonly develop on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include worn pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a deficient maintenance routine. Our professionals find leaks on under-floor heating circuits using thermal imaging, tracer gas and acoustic listening devices.
Building leaks appear in the roof, walls or foundations of a building due to settling of building materials, subsidence, inadequate construction or lacking maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team pinpoint 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.
Roof leaks vary from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water ingress appears where there are damaged tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, insufficient maintenance and wear and tear as the roof gets older. Pinpoint the source of your roof leak by choosing our very professional roof leak investigation technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks develop from hidden pipework within walls, under 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 detect leaks on bathroom pipework including hot and cold feeds to showers, baths, sinks and toilets using non invasive leak detection equipment. Avoid further water damage to your property!
Drainage Leaks arise on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include fractured pipes, broken 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 surveys inside the drain pipe. Our drainage engineer offers a complete inspection to locate the cause of the leak and are generally able to perform a repair on the same day.
