Leak Detection & Repair
Tracing a hidden leak back to its source, so the repair happens once.
What the job involves
Most leaks are not where the damp is. We trace the cause before we open anything up, which is the difference between one repair and three.
What we do
- Leak investigation and tracing, including leaks under floors and behind tiling
- Waste trap, shower tray and seal failures
- Compression and soldered joint repairs on copper pipework
- Failed radiator and towel rail valves
- Rising main and supply pipe leaks
- Repair and reinstatement of the pipework we open up
Signs you need this
- A patch of damp that dries out and comes back
- Water appearing on a ceiling one room away from the bathroom
- A water meter that moves with everything turned off
- Musty smell in a cupboard or under the stairs
- Tiles or grout that stay dark long after a shower
What happens
From your call to a tidy finish
- 01
Establish what is actually wet
Where the water shows is rarely where it starts. We work back from the wettest point.
- 02
Test the likely causes in order
Traps and seals first, then joints, then valves, then the supply. Cheapest and least invasive first.
- 03
Open up only where we need to
We tell you before anything is cut, and what reinstatement will involve.
- 04
Repair and confirm it has stopped
Rechecked before we leave, not the week after.
