FAQs for Leak Detection & Pipe Repairs

  • Hidden leaks often reveal themselves through indirect signs such as damp or mould patches, bubbling or flaking paint, a musty smell, or higher-than-usual water bills.

    You may also notice reduced water pressure or even hear faint dripping sounds when no taps are running.

    Left unchecked, hidden leaks can cause major structural damage, so it’s best to investigate at the first sign of trouble.

  • We use modern leak detection technology such as thermal imaging, acoustic listening devices, and moisture sensors.

    These tools allow us to pinpoint leaks with high accuracy, minimising the need for unnecessary cutting or drilling.

    This means less disruption to your home, lower repair costs, and faster results.
