Hidden leaks are a real risk on Portsea Island. Since the low, reclaimed ground can shift pipe joints over time, old Victorian terraces here face extra risk. Our gentle equipment traces these leaks without needless mess.
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 Portsmouth 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.
