Local Knowledge, Straightforward Service

We use a combination of pressure testing, moisture detection and tracing equipment to narrow down exactly where a hidden leak is coming from before any exploratory work begins. This means less mess, less cost, and a much faster route to a proper repair - whether the leak turns out to be in the central heating system, the mains supply, or a waste pipe hidden behind a wall.

Leak Detection FAQs

How do I know if I have a hidden leak?

Common signs include an unexplained rise in your water bill, damp patches on walls or ceilings, a boiler or heating system that keeps losing pressure, or the sound of running water when nothing is turned on.

Will finding the leak mean ripping up my floor?

Not necessarily. Our detection methods are designed to narrow the search area down as much as possible before any physical investigation, keeping any opening-up to a minimum.

Can a hidden leak affect my boiler?

Yes - a leak in your central heating pipework is one of the most common reasons a boiler keeps losing pressure and needing to be topped up.

Do you repair the leak as well as find it?

Yes, once we've located the leak we can carry out the repair directly in almost all cases.
