\n LEAK DETECTION\n <\/div>\n\n

Finding the Source of the Leak Comes First<\/h2>\n\n

\n Water leaks can come from damaged pipes, ageing joints and fittings,\n or problems around bathrooms and other wet areas. The source is not\n always visible and may be underground, behind a wall, beneath a floor\n or inside a concealed plumbing connection.\n <\/p>\n\n

\n We assess the signs of water damage, investigate the affected area\n and identify the likely source before deciding on the most appropriate\n repair.\n <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/section>\n\n\n \n\n
