Service Overview

Leak Detection & Repair:
The Brief, In Plain English.

What It Is

Non-invasive detection of water leaks anywhere in the home, under floors, behind walls, in heating systems, mains supplies or hot water circuits.

Who It's For

Homeowners with unexplained damp patches, pressure-drop boilers, sky-high water bills or insurance claims requiring a leak report.

When You Need It

Mystery damp, dripping sounds, falling boiler pressure, warm patches on the floor, every day the leak runs is more damage.

Why It Matters

Ripping up floors to 'have a look' costs thousands. Proper detection finds the exact spot in hours, not days, and limits the repair to the smallest possible area.

What Happens If You Wait

The Cost Of
Doing Nothing.

A hidden leak costs more in damage than it ever does to repair.

Risks Of Ignoring It

  • Rotted joists, blown plaster, stained ceilings, ruined flooring.
  • Electrical hazards where water tracks behind sockets.
  • Mould affecting health and resale value.
  • Insurance refused if not reported and dealt with promptly.

Common Mistakes Customers Make

  • ×Calling a builder to 'open up and have a look', guaranteed extra damage.
  • ×Topping the boiler up daily instead of finding the leak.
  • ×Letting it run because 'it's only a small drip'.

Questions

Straight
Answers.

Cost, response time, guarantees, warranty implications, emergency availability, answered before you call.

Ask Yours

Will you have to lift floors?

+

Only where the leak actually is, and only once located. No exploratory destruction; we open the smallest possible area to access and repair.

Do you provide reports for insurers?

+

Yes, detailed reports with thermal imaging, tracer-gas readings and findings, written specifically for insurance assessors and trace-and-access claims.

How long does detection take?

+

Most domestic detections complete within 2–3 hours. Complex underfloor or heating-system leaks may take a full visit.

What does leak detection cost?

+

A fixed price agreed upfront based on the property size and leak type. The repair is quoted separately once located, with no obligation.

Can you find leaks under a tiled or wooden floor?

+

Yes, acoustic and thermal tools detect without lifting. We only break the surface at the confirmed leak point.

My boiler keeps losing pressure, is that a leak?

+

Usually yes. Tracer-gas testing pinpoints sealed-system pinholes that visual inspection will never find.

Do you handle commercial leak detection?

+

Yes, offices, retail units and multi-occupancy properties across Leicestershire, with out-of-hours attendance available.

How do I know if I have a hidden leak?

+

Unexplained damp patches, dripping sounds in walls, falling boiler pressure, warm spots on floors and rising water bills are the most common signs.
