Petersfield sits on chalk and sandy ground at the edge of the South Downs. This ground differs greatly from Portsmouth's reclaimed coastal land. Since ground type shapes how leaks form, we trace them differently in both old and modern homes here.
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 Petersfield property.
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.
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.
We isolate and repair the affected pipework first. We then pressure-test the system, since this confirms the leak is fully fixed.
We trace the leak's spot with sound and moisture tools first. This happens before any invasive work starts. Since Petersfield sits on chalk and sandy ground, we factor these conditions into every reading.

We use acoustic listening equipment and moisture detection to trace a leak's likely spot in Petersfield 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.
