Central heating heating leaks are often buried beneath floors, behind walls or cavities. A boiler losing water water pressure is the most likely sign of a leaking central heating system, further warnings include water damage or needing to constantly bleed radiators. Our professionals discover the cause of heating leaks, irrespective of the cause or location of the leak using non destructive leak detection equipment. Our plumbing technicians offer a rapid 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 likely cause of a swimming pool leak is broken pipes on the filtration system caused by ground movement, additional causes include deteriorated filtration system fittings or damage to the pool structure. Our PADI Qualified divers provide a SPATA accredited swimming pool leak detection service to pinpoint the location of swimming pool leaks
Water supply leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A increased water bill is a warning of a leaking water mains. The single most frequent location of a water mains leak is outside where the water supply pipe is damaged by ground movement which causes pipes to fracture or fittings to become worn. Our engineers complete a water meter leak test to identify whether the leak is internal or external, then perform a leak detection investigation to identify the leak.
Underground water leaks originate from water mains, irrigation systems or drainage pipes. Causes of underground water leaks include ground movement, corroded pipes, tree root damage or substandard installations. We locate underground water leaks by initially determining which pipes are beneath the ground. Our non destructive leak detection approach is used to pinpoint the origin of the leak without causing damage to the ground surface.
Underfloor heating leaks commonly arise on the manifold valves, circuit pipes and from loose fittings. Causes of leaks on underfloor heating circuits include corroded pipework, faulty installation, damage to the pipes, age or a poor maintenance routine. Our technicians locate leaks on under floor 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, substandard construction or neglected maintenance. Our structural leak investigation team find leaks in building materials including concrete, brick and wood using a selection of leak detection systems including Tracer gas leak testing, thermal imaging and acoustic listening devices.
Roof leaks range from gradual water intrusion causing damp to a significant flow of water in heavy rainfall. Roof water entry develops where there are missing tiles, damaged flashing, failing mortar or damage around a chimney. Causes of leaks on roofs include storm damage, substandard construction, inadequate 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 technicians.
Shower and bathroom leaks develop from hidden pipework within walls, beneath the bathtub, shower tray or sink.

Avoid further water damage to your property!
Drainage leaks occur on internal and external drain pipework. Causes of leaks on drain pipes include broken pipes, worn 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 drain pipe.
