How leak detection & repair works in Lee-on-the-Solent
1
Describe the Symptoms
Tell us what you've noticed — a high water bill, damp patch, or running water sounds. As a result, we book a leak detection visit to your Lee-on-the-Solent property.
2
Non-Invasive Tracing
We use acoustic listening equipment and moisture detection to trace the leak. This narrows down its likely spot, since we avoid lifting flooring or opening walls unnecessarily.
3
Confirm the Location
Once we're confident where the leak is, we explain what we found. We then walk you through the repair options, since no invasive work starts without your say.
4
Repair the Leak
We isolate and repair the affected pipework first. We then pressure-test the system, since this confirms the leak is fully fixed.
Our approach in Lee-on-the-Solent
We trace the leak with sound and moisture tools first. This happens before any invasive work starts. Since the water table runs high in this coastal spot, we factor that into every reading.
Local tip: A rising water bill at a Lee-on-the-Solent seafront home is worth checking fast. Since the water table runs high here, it can hide early signs of a leak. Checking sooner rather than later saves you money.

Leak Detection & Repair in Lee-on-the-Solent — FAQs
How do you find a hidden leak in Lee-on-the-Solent without digging up the floor?
We use acoustic listening equipment and moisture detection to trace a leak's likely spot in Lee-on-the-Solent properties. Since invasive work should be a last resort, we only lift flooring or open a wall once we're confident where the leak is.
How much does leak detection cost in Lee-on-the-Solent?
The cost depends on how easy the pipework is to reach in your Lee-on-the-Solent property.
