Common Signs of Water Leaks in Your Property
Recognising the early signs of a leak in your plumbing system can save you from extensive repairs and high water bills. Here are some common indicators that you might have a pipe leak or another hidden issue:
An unexpected rise in your water bill without increased usage often points to a hidden issue.
Visible damp patches, mould, or mildew on walls, ceilings, or floors suggest a possible problem in your home.
A sudden drop in water pressure might indicate a leak in your central heating system.
Hearing water when all taps are turned off can be a sign of a hidden leak.
Structural damage such as cracks or warping can occur from prolonged leaks, potentially indicating an underground water leak.
Persistent damp smells can indicate hidden moisture issues.
If you notice any of these signs, it's essential to act quickly. Early leak detection can prevent costly damage and reduce water wastage, ensuring the safety and efficiency of your property.
Our Water Leak Detection Process
At North West Water Leaks, we employ a comprehensive approach to efficiently and accurately identify leaks:
Initial Consultation
We begin by discussing the issues you're experiencing to understand the potential causes of the problem. This helps us tailor our approach to your specific situation.
Non-Invasive Detection Techniques
Our engineers use advanced, non-destructive methods for water leak detection, including:
- Acoustic Listening Devices: These pick up the sound of water escaping from pipes, helping us find underground leaks or those within walls.
- Thermal Imaging Cameras: Detect temperature differences caused by moisture, allowing us to find hidden issues behind walls or under floors.
- Tracer Gas Testing: A safe gas is introduced into the system; specialised detectors find where it escapes, pinpointing the leak.
- Moisture Meters: Measure moisture levels in building materials to identify damp areas caused by leaks.
Accurate Leak Identification
Using these techniques, we can detect water leaks with precision, ensuring minimal disruption to your property. Our advanced technology allows us to identify problem areas quickly and efficiently.
